Written by Michael Lessac and Tom Tammi [1] based on research relating to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission with specific focus on the role of translators of statements made to the Commission. In 2003 Lessac interviewed the translators. The interviews and the rest of the project were filmed and was to be released as a documentary film. Rehearsals began as workshops with the actors and musicians.
The play was to tour to Belfast, Kosovo, Jerusalem and Sweden. Was on the Edinburgh Fringe.
