This powerful and genius performance by the award-winning Croatian author and director Oliver Frljic speaks with cynicism about political theatre and its heroes in the former state. The central issue is not a historical event of the last war, but still persistent and smouldering political problem - the danger of committing a crime. All we need to do is pull the trigger.
„...and the performance is more than a moralistic critique of the media and dramatic discourse... Following the method of devised theatre, by personally responding to Frljic’s provocations, the actors created the material of the play themselves, producing the feeling of uneasiness when their intimate worlds, as well as real historical facts, are disclosed.”
