Men become legends, women end up as myths.

Centuries ago, Gertruid Bolwater climbed the city walls. She reclaimed the flag and gave her people the courage to fight on, but ended up as a forgotten statue and became the infamous 'bubble gum girl'.

The 'Joan of Arc of Lowlands' is in danger of disappearing from our memory forever. Club Lam breathes new life into her: not as a folkloric statue, but as a living legend and advocate of ecofeminism.

At her side are Ophelia and Cassandra – women who are only remembered for their tragic endings. Together they try to save their new leader, Trut, before she too drowns as a myth.

'Trut' is the siren song of Club Lam, raising forgotten fortune tellers into legends.
