Children are beautiful, ugly, sweet, annoying, hateful, loving, mad, bad, loud and funny. So is Children, a bitter-sweet and sweaty duet which exposes the heaven and hell of a relationship at breaking point. The fine and divine line between love and hate, passion and violence is revealed as two people are plunged into the agony and the ecstasy of trying to stay together for themselves and for their children. Children is dark, witty, very physical, and like a big, grown-up child.
