The Arabic text on the poster reads: "أدى البيضة و إلى لقاها و إلى سلقها و إلى قشرها و إلى أكله," which translates to: "It led to the egg, to finding it, to boiling it, to peeling it, and to eating it."
This phrase is a tribute to a childhood game called ‘البيضة’ (The Egg), which was played by the Marina Nader Asham's grandmother. Every time Marina visited her, she would make them laugh by playing this simple yet joyful game. The game consisted of five lines, each represented by a finger, and as the song progressed, one finger would be lowered until all five were down. Even after the grandmother’s passing, the game remained a cherished memory, which Marina later introduced to their sister, passing down the tradition. This poster captures the spirit of those moments, symbolizing the love, joy, and lasting connection shared between them.
