Synopsis
Marie is used to the drab monotony of everyday life on her parent’s farm. But it gets unbearable when Marie’s older sister Anne surprisingly turns up for the first time after three years. The lost daughter back for her mother’s birthday. Marie takes off her prettiest dress again and begins a wordless battle against her older sister – about a lost love, against the silence of the others and her powerlessness. At the end, there is only enough room for one of the sisters. “Eloquent Silence” is the story of a silent emancipation – an intimate play about jealousy, constraint and coming-of-age.
