Elise Wilk's drama explores the complexities of emigration, the dissolution of relationships, and the collision of individual lives with historical forces. It depicts a vanished German-speaking community in Romania that exists only in the memories of a few elderly men and a few emigrants.
The three chapters of the text present the three stages of the disintegration of a Saxon family, focusing on three female figures.
The project was selected as a winner of the Budapest Staféta competition, which provides an opportunity for young artists to create independent performances. The production is currently included in the repertoire of the Szkéné Theatre in Budapest.
premiere: 2023
