This concert performance explores the theme: "Why do people leave their native countries?". We encounter refugees and exiles, emigrants and immigrants, our ancestors and our dreams. Through songs the tales of the travellers are told, as they walk an endless path across the World.

"During the last few years, thousands of people have left our country. Some have gone for long periods of time; some have emigrated forever. The largest number among them were young educated people who were supposed to "build our future". In this way, the future has been taken from us.

As theatre group we collaborate with people from other countries. They come to live here out of love, in this case love for theatre. This project traces the paths of those with dreams of proud, creative lives who seek to realize their dreams through travel." - Dijana Milosevic
