This story relates hoiw it feels to meet intolerance and lack of respect just because one is different. About how her rich familytradition helped Katitzi to become a storyteller who managed to change this attitude. One can only show respect to others if one is met with understanding for ones needs. You have the right to the same treatment as anyone, even if you are, and feel yourself to be different.
The play's form is based on ancient storytelling techniques. It is performed in a simple but effective set. Our belly organ is an essential element in the piece.
