It is exactly seven o'clock. With a well-groomed tie, wearing his father's suit and holding his mother's suitcase, Son is ready for his big departure. But as Brel said, "The hardest thing for a man living in Vilvoorde and wanting to go to Hong-Kong is not to go to Hong-Kong, but to leave Vilvoorde." 

Belgian playwright Mireille Bailly's absurdist play analyses the right to be different against the backdrop of all kinds of bizarre family relationships.
