In Songs of Lost Treasures by NIE the audience met three dear friends searching for the stories of everything lost. They embarked on a journey to the man who lost everything, the man who fell in love with a mermaid and the doll escaping the snow by balloon. Through playful theatre, music, animated cartoons and film the three friends relived fond memories, sad memories and memories they had forgotten all about.
Songs of Lost Treasures was based on collected stories by children aged 6-9 years. The subject of the stories was the experience of loss and the feeling of missing something.
