The story is about siblings Klas and Klara and their vulnerability in an adult world characterized by desire and neglect.

Artist Sara Parkman has written new folk music for the audio drama, which will be released as six 15-minute episodes on Swedish Radio on October 19. Eva Staaf has directed the production, and SR has also commissioned a teacher's guide for primary and secondary schools.

The voices of Klas and Klara are performed by Hedvig Karnell and Lino Vargas Tengdahl.
