The attitude of the state towards intellectuals. Censorship, pressures, use of force.
Brain drain to third countries.
Process of adaptation to a new world and a new culture, hard, long and uncertain.

These are all images from our lives. How many more shall leave, or how many shall remain, for something to change? A team of young people with a desire to do something after all, brought together their positive energy to produce this play. A question remains: in addition to seeing it, will the audience hear it?

Attention, please, if not - then, darkness!
