It is a civic theater performance based on the people honored in the Garden of the Righteous and tells the stories of some of them. In particular, Armin T. Wegner, Father Pino Puglisi, Father Mussie Zerai, and Meena Keshwar Kamal of RAWA. The latter is not yet officially remembered among the Righteous, but we believe she deserves full recognition for her efforts and achievements in women's emancipation under the Taliban regime. Therefore, we share her story with the other Righteous to propose her recognition in the Garden.

The show, which lasts about 60 minutes, tackles four different, seemingly unrelated themes, distant in time and space, yet there is at least one aspect they have in common: they are timely.

GOALS
