In the original myth, Vodnik (a deity) lives in the depths of a lake. After his beloved long plea to see her mother again in the human world, he reluctantly agrees to let her go, keeping her offspring, a daughter. Tired of waiting for his wife to return, Vodnik decides to sacrifice the child on the doorstep of the woman who abandoned him. The Secret plays with the myth and lyrical symphony created by Dvorak, as the child isn't sacrificed, but given up on the doorstep of a house occupied by an atypical couple. The play invites us into the heart of the family drama where violence still the only way to communicate. The man lives cloistered and the woman conceals the secret of a miraculous maternity. As for the abandoned little girl, she will have grown up despite everything, building her revolt. Intrusion of a stranger into their lives brings out all the latent family dramas on the edge of fate.
