'2014, Sydney, in the aftershocks of the Lindt Café shootings. A young woman running from violence arrives at Angel Place with $480 stuffed in a sock at the bottom of her bag. A woman who is homeless ekes out an existence on the mean streets of the city. An elderly couple continues a quest to understand the loss of their daughter. A security guard tries to restore some semblance of order. Their lives intersect at Ground Zero, at the dark heart of the city, with shattering consequences.
'The sequel to bAKEHOUSE’s extraordinary, ground-breaking Jatinga - a play inspired by the lives of the girls trafficked into sexual slavery in Kamathipura - Katie Pollock’s new play is one artist’s response.'
