“The valley floor asks for just one thing, I feel. That we love it in silence, but that we love it all the same. I love you, valley floor, may the mist bring comfort!” Alix Fournier-Pittaluga and Paul Francesconi, episode 2 “Growing Up”

Inheriting the Mists is the story of a theatre company, made up of contemporary actors and playwrights, who attempt to recreate the adventure of the Théâtre du Peuple, 130 years after its founding. It is a theatrical series in six episodes. It is a quest to try to understand what a utopia is and what a utopia can mean for us today.
