Festival history

Bo and Jessy have the same mother, but different fathers. The mother grew addicted to drugs and neglected her family. Bo started playing the role of mother for her younger brothers and sisters. The responsibility is Bo's, and in the second place that of her small brother Jessy. When their mother, to get hold of some money, even sells Bo's horse, Bo has had enough of it and moves into her father's house. Bo and Jessy regularly call on each other.\par
