The story of the birth and the construction of a theatrical performance that would tell the story of some young actors: the idea, the writing, the try outs, the rehearsals, the tenacity of the actor's craft, the perplexity of the parents, the work and commitment of all involved to do of Little Souls a beautiful and amusing performance. The theatrical company has a strange mixture of ideas, life styles, obsessions, aspirations, and lacks of patience. Its members experience the basic ability not to ever take themselves too seriously as well as the rage and the rigor that come out the will to do everything for the best, out of respect for the public and for their own work.
