Eleven traveling ladies who go around the world discovering its diversity
Using the structure and the characters of a tale of the Galician-Portuguese tradition, a modern story is born without rejecting the classical resources of the literature of oral transmission. It uses subtraction, going from eleven to ten to nine and all the way down to one, to make a game that favors the active role of those who listen or read, their anticipation, and stimulates curiosity about other places and cultures.

Once damas atrevidas
camiñaron ata Fez;
unha perdeuse nos contos,
non quedaron máis que dez.
