"If only you could see your daughter a soul who was dreaming to live"
"To Live" is a theatrical forum which takes the style of storytelling. It highlights the issue of the so-called "Honor Killing against Women".

The final dates of the festival will be scheduled as soon as we can depending on the development of the control on the Corona virus in the world and the ability for people to travel and audiences to be together.
