The decision to die emerges as a decision for life.

And it is this unnatural clarity of vision, this irreversible decision, that frightens us – we live in a society that defends human life as an unquestionable value, even if it means turning a deaf ear to many silences that scream out.

Marsha Norman, a longtime activist for gender equality in artistic production, also brings us here the struggle of a woman within a patriarchal system of invisibility, in which the mother is paradoxically the zenith. In this dance of life or death, the daughter, whose identity has been confiscated by years of invisibility, seeks a final choice that will restore her agency as a woman.

This will be their war, the women's war, as Norman would say:
Adapt, solve, survive, continue, unlike men, who disappear, flee, die or steal after leaving those around them with their lives forever scarred.
