Xenophobia, prejudice, religious conflict, fear and anxiety are the challenges that three fathers have to deal with in order to protect their children.

Writer Mike van Graan said: "It's as if the subject is taboo, the theme which cannot be mentioned, a topic too dramatic and volatile in real life to be explored in theatre. And yet, precisely for these reasons, we need plays that put into the public domain those issues that cause us anxiety, fear and unease, so that theatre can play its role of provoking debate, challenging personal comfort zones, allowing for individual and collective catharsis."
