High up in the Himalaya Mountains there is an unique hotel. A mountain refuge for stray nomadic animals, sedentary species and domesticated creatures. The manager of the hotel is a Yeti, and the vice manager – his curious daughter, Yetinka. Yetinka is growing up to a specific age when difficult questions are being asked. Among other things – what a Human really is. Yeti is not eager to answer. He still tries to protect his child against the whole world.

Frustrated Yetinka sets out on a challenging journey to find out the answers to her questions on her own. She is accompanied by the shy snake Wążusia, the mysterious and tricky Guinea Pig and the indecisive, hyperactive Dog. They all want to encounter the most mysterious of animals – a man!

What a human is, everyone can see is a play about the relationship between Yetinka and her dad, who – during a thrilling and emotional adventure among Himalayan peaks, rainbow and whistling caves and fantastic animals, learn to truly talk to each other. It is also a story of how others perceive us and what we can do to change that. There are no good or bad humans and animals after all. In the end, what defines us are our choices and it is up to us to decide who and what we are.
