Parental Ctrl is a performance-concert about generation Y and their parents, about the escape from reality and the dependence on virtuality, about the inevitable connections and ruptures between generations.

– Hello?
– Hi, Mum!
– How are you, sweetheart?
– I’m ok. You, guys?
– We’re ok too. All’s fine? Work? Did you get the flu? Do you need money?
– No, everything’s fine. Hey, I have to hang up, I’ll call you back later, ok?
– Of course, I didn’t mean to bother, call me whenever you can!
– Ok, bye!
– Bye, darling!

– Listen…

– I love you.
– I love you too.
