Accompanied by four musician performers, Simon Mayer get rid of the conservatism and the rules of the traditional Alpine music, group dances and rites.
With great skill, they annihilate the stereotype of the male model that traditions maintain persistently.
The sons of Sissy do everything they can to honor their name, sometimes acting like a funny quartet of folk music, sometimes as a combo of experimental ritual dance.
Folklore traditions revisited in a hilarious and crazy way.
