Description

Happiness awaits Martha and her Mother. They just have to kill to get it. This adaptation of Camus’ absurd play sees the prodigal son return to a troubled home and a sister who longs to escape the banality of her world. 'A crime is a crime, the only thing that matters is to know what you want.' Martha longs to be by the sea, Maria wants love, Mother wants nothing more than to rest and Jan wants to be welcomed into his family's arms. But in life, no one gets what they want. Even murder can become tedious.
