When Sophie is diagnosed with a rare cancer around the lungs, she decides to live life afresh through nine wig-related invented realities. As wigs become a crucial part of Sophie’s new life, she reclaims a sense of self-expression. Each of Sophie’s nine wigs makes her feel stronger and gives her a distinct personality, and that is why each has its own name: Stella, Sue, Daisy, Blondie, Platina, Uma, Pam, Lydia, and Bebé. There’s a bit of Sophie in all of them, and they reveal as much as they hide. Sophie is determined to be much more than a cancer patient.
With refreshing candour and a keen eye for the absurd, Sophie van der Stap’s The Girl With Nine Wigs makes you smile when you least expect it.
