"No human heart is capable of enduring so much pain. The whole complicated human psyche was only created to prevent people from understanding what they really see. To prevent the truth from reaching him, clouded by illusion, by empty chatter. The world is a prison full of suffering, it is constructed in such a way that in order to survive, one must inflict pain on other living beings."
In her ecofeminist thriller, Olga Tokarczuk writes about an elderly woman and lone fighter who lives in a forest on the Polish border with the Czech Republic, relentlessly campaigning for animal rights and nature conservation, but is only ridiculed by her few neighbors. When a series of deaths and murders suddenly start to unsettle the inhabitants of the high plateau, Janina Duszejko begins her own investigations and becomes increasingly convinced that animals are taking revenge on humans.
A fairytale-like evening of musical theater and a provocative exploration of the dark border area between justice and tradition, reason and madness, autonomy and fate. What kind of stories do we tell ourselves and who do we allow to have a voice?
