AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Inspired by the original musical diary of Otto Lampel. Otto and his broken heart flee war-ravaged Prague crossing the Atlantic Ocean to a new life in Canada. He finds a fish, a lion, and a girl... but will the trembling mountain let him outrun his past? songs, roars, doctrines - these are dangerous things.'
