Poet Luka Lesson's great grandmother Magdalini was a midwife, for decades, on hand to help the people of her small Greek village.
A pilgrimage to that place sees Luka consider his own role as a new father, and the gradual introduction of his child to their "village".
But an aspect of that introduction is an unhappy one, and Luka considers just how precarious the feeling of belonging can be.

This programme contains strong discriminatory language.

These essays were recorded in front of an audience at the Sydney Theatre Company. The writers acknowledged the Gadigal people and paid respects to elders past and present.
