+The play tells the story of the Geduld family and the traditional burial of their grandmother Mieta under stones in the Karoo veld. Her grandchildren’s only prospect seems to be the squatter camp near Colesberg. Their father, Koot, was once the leading sheep shearer, but now he is in prison for the murder of his second wife. After his release, Sarah, a researcher who had dealings with the family years ago, tracks him down. Together they survey the Karretjiemense’s past and future.
