On a very cold night, a woman embarks on a journey after receiving some news and finds herself in a fairy-tale kitchen with two sister witches. Here, she is witness to a variety of sisters’ stories and a whole world of tastes and flavours. Through the emotions of sisterhood defining their stories and the preparation for a feast, she starts an emotional journey and able to confront her own sister.
“Sister,
The snow has begun again.
Trees are appearing, if but a few.
Next stop is a school in the woods
And after that, the land of fairy tales.
Rumour has it that children are devoured there
Not by the monsters but loneliness.
I’d fight with you there if we were children…
But it’s not important anymore
The cold and hunger make you forget everything
Aside from the curses you’ve showered on me
All that’s left
Is for you to drag me to the depths.
If I lay down here,
If I let go of the weight of the cold
Maybe then
We can fall into a dream that makes us who we are
We can travel through numerous tunnels
And get lost in the dark…”
