Mama

How do women contribute to the self-sufficiency of communities within society? And how do they break through traumas? In the multidisciplinary performance Mama, Move Huntu tells hidden stories about motherhood and the role of women. A dedication to and celebration of the mothers who were there, the women who are there, and those who will come.
