Unsere kleine Farm

Louise Pons

Louise Pons

Helmi finally takes on »Little House on the Prairie«, based on Laura Ingalls’ book and the iconic 1970s TV series! It’s wild to start a farm in the middle of nature, with a bunch of little kids and hardly any experience. There’s been so little trust in our lives, but here it’s all different. Nature is blooming profusely, the pig’s grown huge, and there are two young donkeys – unfortunately, both male. Lots of fresh air, peace and quiet. Then there’s family life and the strangers—that is, the neighbors—though to the neighbors, we’re the strangers—and there are different kinds of strangers, too; some seem to have been here for quite a while. We don’t know exactly where we are. It could be Wyoming or the Uckermark. Why are all these people here? What were they fleeing from? This new Helmi project is also going to be a radical confrontation. Watch dreams collide with reality, facts with fiction, Germany with itself. The beautiful with the ugly. We have enough dolls and songs to see us through. Joining the expedition this time is a team of people with extensive experience in extreme situations: Cora Peter Frost, Tania Elstermeyer, Silke Schönfleisch, and John-Boy, the dog.

We’re approaching the walnut grove with a completely open mind!
