The play deals with the rocky road to unpunished abortion in Switzerland at a time when abortion was still in the criminal code and therefore interferes with a woman's self-determination over her body. In the performance, VR is being used on stage to convey the memories present in a diary that the main character finds in her grandmother’s attic.
