's shared by the world 

, a silent play of the Dramatic Company , would remind the audience of the harsh reality after the war in silence but very clearly. The stage of is a square of a small station in a ruined city after the war. There are powerlessly throw-out people (begging boy, girl, and a pimp) under a gigantic power of war in this space. There are also people passing by (various soldiers and a miser) who arose from enjoying the war, Images of war, however, are only shown through customs of some actors and explosive sounds from a distance. The audience would be into the funny actions and sweat of actors gradually, laughing, crying together, and finally feeling warm from the bottom of their hearts. They would also feel sympathy that the war is the one that ripped off the warmness.

At that moment, the old lady sees the lost tickets inside her shoe. They are so happy and run into the station missing the young. The hopeless brother and sister are trying to escape once again. The most wicked whip of the pimps is waiting for them. When the sharp whip flies in the air, the pimp loses sight of whom is running out of the station. They are, of course, the old couple. Now, these four as one are fighting against the pimp. The fight does not seem to be ended without the stronger or the weaker. Bombing started from the distance is getting bigger and comes in a storm.
