A sung and rhymed story that delights us with the more sinister aspects of nursery rhymes. One by one, four children enter a bucolic labyrinth and come face to face with their fears. Based on a horror ballad by Scottish poet Helen Adam.
In 1980, Kubrick immortalized the maze as the perfect setting for horror. In 2025, Tomas Stark once again plunges us into that endless, claustrophobic space. Guiding us through its paths are, once more, children—playing, running, or fleeing, descending into the abyss of our personal fears. Inspired by the haunting poem of the same name by Scottish writer Helen Adam, In and Out of the Hornbeam Maze wraps around us like an old lullaby, growing darker with every step, slowly unveiling a disturbing truth: there is no way out. (Jéssica Pestana)
