Season 3 Episode 1: Winter Tree Prologue
Season 3 Episode 1: The Bones Speak
Andu Abril and James Curcio
We are all just costumes death wears for a season.
In Ayta’s prologue for The Winter Tree, she paints a portrait of her transformation following her grandmother's death. Gran’s passing on the night of the solstice symbolizes a personal winter for Ayta, mirroring Gran’s teachings about life’s cyclical nature.
This prologue explores the transformative power of storytelling and memory, Ayta’s journey through grief, and her struggle to construct her identity from her grandmother’s legacy, now that she has gone.
