Four teenagers explore a run-down hotel, an abandoned place in a province of Italy. They put on stage weddings, childbirths, funerals, investigations and trials, beatings, drunkenness among pirates, in a frantic movement that runs on its place. But sooner or later any game that tends to infinite reveals its disturbing facet. A contemporary theatre show inspired by Peter Pan, re-read as a contemporary myth.
Your restlessness makes me think
about the passing birds that hit the lights
in the stormy nights.
(E. Montale)
