“The earth does not belong to us; we belong to the earth.” (Chief Seattle)

You are survivors, in the most humble sense of the word. You are the ones taking care of the soil, for future generations. You work the earth following the ways of old, or at least, what you remember of them. While you tend, you also talk. You share stories, memories, legends. Because the echoes of stories, species and generations past are where we all stay alive. And hence, you work, you nurture, you give and you care. You tell tales to each other, and to the soil, knowing these whispers will nurture the seeds for future existence.

Whispers of the Soil is a hopeful larp about nurturing and grounding, surviving through stories, and planting seeds for the future.

DETAILS
Duration: 4 hours

Content warnings: Climate change, abstraction of the state of the planet, death, loss, hopelessness, sudden change etc. may be part of the larp, though the game is ultimately a hopeful one. Participants will work soil with their hands which means their hands and potentially their clothes and feet will get dirty, this can be calibrated to individual participants’ needs.

Accessibility: this larp has a lot of movement. Chairs will be provided so sitting down regularly while participating is possible. There will also be talking and creating soundscapes together, as well as some auditory cues and a soundtrack.
