"The smell of mum's cooking. Dad's quiet snoring, which can still be heard through all the
rooms. The incessant sniffling of my sister. The smell of clean laundry. The loud playing of the grandfather's radio. Grandma's stories while looking through family photo albums. Funny

Mum's lipstick and necklaces...''
This is just a small part of the memories contained in the word HOME. We all feel and perceive home differently, but we all know that HOME is much more than just a place to live. It is a place where we feel safe, loved and at peace. But what happens to those for whom home does not evoke such feelings? What happens to those who do not find a home for their entire life? And not the physical one, but the inner one, which sometimes takes a lifetime to build.
The play tells the story of three teenagers growing up in an orphanage who are about to come of age and have to move out on their own. But to everyone's
