An intimate puppet and object theatre performance for adults that invites a glimpse into the routine life of Badada - a woman who lives alone in her small apartment, and has no contact with the outside world. From that she creates a relationship with the house itself and its objects, nourishing and nourished by an inner world, anxious and rich in imagination. Badada's symbiotic relationship with her home evokes a rethinking of mental and physical freedom of movement and highlights the gap between what we see and hear and what we experience and imagine.
