It was hot. Stifling hot. It had been all day. That kind of oppressive, humid heat where the air is heavy and thick, where you pray for the evening's cool air to arrive early, or a thunderstorm to roll down from the Alps. But some nights, it's just impossible to cool down…

Eight years have passed since they last crossed paths. When they meet again, in post-war Salzburg, the Captain and Maria are no longer the same two people they had been, back when they danced in the garden.

When Maria returns to the villa, Elsa realizes she must intervene in order to protect her relationship with Georg, and enlists Max's help in a plot to keep Maria and the Captain apart.

Like a restless dream, impossible to ignore, it wraps itself around you and refuses to let go. Unforgettable, it can't be denied. Before it's even had a chance to fully reveal itself, before you try to find words to give it meaning, it sets you hurtling off course. There's no warning. You have no say, no control. Before you even realise what's happened, it's too late…

Last night I dreamt I went to Aigen again.

A Dixie-style take on "My Favorite Things". I live in the South and the struggle is real.
