Synopsis: "Wallflower" tells the well known story and drama of the place where it was performed. Two wallflowers, wishing to dance, hide behind their handbags at the edge of the dance floor. But, when the bags fall their fingers develop claws. And, when the dance floor is too narrow, cliffs are an alternative. The word wallflower in Swedish is "panelhona." It means "wall hen" - the hen at the wall.
