​
Two boys, Amir and Hassan, grow up together in Kabul. One day their special friendship comes to a cruel end. Amir and his father flee to the United States where they make a new life, but Amir cannot forget Hassan. The discovery of a shocking family secret takes him back to Afghanistan, where Amir is confronted by ghosts from his past. His resolve to repay the old debt to Hassan takes him on a horrifying adventure.
​
'For you 1000 times' is a first direction by Aïcha Cissé (Maastricht Theatre Academy) with students and artists from kunstZ. It is a connecting story in which universal themes such as family, friendship, betrayal and forgiveness are central.
