Letters (Hebron 2008)

letters

When FEAR becomes ā€œa personā€ for children, they can no longer sleep or think or concentrate. They try to get rid of this ā€œpersonā€ and delete him or her from their lives. Grown-ups usually find these tactics silly. But for kids they find themselves behind barriers hiding and weak.

ā€œLettersā€ is a story built up around 3 Arabic letters HRB which (in Arabic) are the root of many words: war, wide, ink, sea, priest, (among others). A group of girls try to grab fear,Ā  a creature they can find, catch, and throw away. They try to catch it and put it on display to show others. They try to trap it. Ā They look at the letters and discover and that by throwing away the R they end up with another root-word. And that word is LOVE.
