An actress draws live the places and characters that inhabit Nadine’s story: glowing buildings, an attic full of surprises, quirky creatures, and a sly cat leaping across the rooftops. Nadine takes the audience on a quest to find three precious objects from her childhood. The tale unfolds between reality and imagination, weaving together storytelling and live drawing. Each line sketched is like a step toward a new beginning—because even when everything seems lost, there is always the possibility to rebuild, to redraw a new world.
