Everything is as it was
The content on this page was translated automatically.
On one evening, texts from the novel that can be read like music are combined with music that can be heard like a painting. Excerpts will be read about the young Ronja the Robber's Daughter. Her life begins with a thunderclap that splits the castle where she will grow up. She soon discovers the world outside the fortress, which has no borders or walls. In the vastness of the forest, she learns about her fears and how to deal with them. A friendship with Birk, the son of the hostile band of robbers, leads to a conflict between Ronja and her father Mattis. This comes to a head until Mattis disowns his daughter, who then decides to live in the forest - in freedom and self-determination. But even in her new home, she is caught up in the pain that lies deep within her and the question of what will happen when summer is over and winter comes.
Lindgren's words and music by Mendelssohn and Fauré create a musical bedtime story that creates a space of longing. It invites you to dream - of the forest, the pond and the Glupafall. At the end is the frightening yet reassuring realization that suffering, just like freedom and spring, always comes back and everything is as it was.
