Reconstruction of a (non-existent) mourning process

‘Katrientje’ revisits the loss of Barbara and Stefanie Claes' sister, Katrien, who died at twelve. Theatre director Barbara Claes blends fact with fantasy, humor, and comfort. This reconstruction offers a child's perspective on grief in a time with little focus on mourning.
