In ’n Suid-Afrika waar mense net 140 woorde per dag mag gebruik, moet twee jong geliefdes leer om met stilte te leef, en om met woorde te baklei. Hoe sê jy ‘ek’s lief vir jou’ as taal self gevaarlik geword het? Hierdie ontroerende stuk ondersoek wat liefde, vryheid en die krag van ’n mens se stem binne beperkinge beteken.

In a South Africa where people are only allowed to use 140 words a day, two young lovers must learn to live with silence, and to fight with words. How do you say ‘I love you’ when language itself has become dangerous? This moving work explores what love, freedom and the power of one’s voice mean within limitations.
