Hind Eljadid en haar zus (Fatima-Zahra) schreven het boek Kruimeldief en maken hier nu een toneelstuk van: Haar huid valt bijna naast haar botten. Als ik zou willen zou ik ze kunnen plooien, vouwen en binnenstebuiten keren. Ik zou er een afdak van kunnen maken of mezelf ermee omwikkelen als een soort dubbele huid. Mijn moeder trekt en pulkt aan het loshangend vel van haar borsten, kijkt naar me en zegt dat die vroeger vol melk zaten en dat ik dan aan haar tepel zoog. Ik word er misselijk van. Ik vraag me af hoe ver ik haar huid zou kunnen rekken, hoeveel tijd er nog tussen haar huid en organen over is, tot ze elkaar raken omdat er niets meer is. Een ziekte verteert het lichaam van de moeder van Hind en Fatima-Zahra Eljadid. Het is een traag en pijnlijk aftakelingsproces en het komt bovenop de vechtscheiding van haar agressieve ex-man, en bovenop de angst en de armoede. Kruimeldief is een poëtische maar ook rauwe elegie over moederkeszalf, afscheid nemen, terugblikken en herinneren. Maar ook over witte gangen, liefdeloze lakens en … zusterliefde. Een verhaal over rouw en veerkracht, over geloof en religie, over seksualiteit en het zoeken naar je eigen weg in een verwarrende en harde wereld. In het midden van deze zoektocht vind je de handgreep van de zussen, die elkaar nooit loslaten. Een verhaal van een zoektocht naar zingeving waar vele mensen iets aan kunnen hebben.
