Grief-stricken by her father's sudden death, Amelia Alissa travels to her ancestral homeland, Lebanon. Amid the ancient Baalbek ruins and the faded splendour of the Palmyra Hotel, she begins to uncover the fragments of her past. Her journey, entwined with a timeless tale of migration and sacrifice, runs alongside her father's homecoming story during Lebanon's civil war in the 1980s. As the two paths converge, Amelia is drawn into the truths of legacy, sacrifice and the meaning of home. A physical theatre work harnessing innovative storytelling, ensemble performance and distinctive visual language.
