Director Viktor Marvin about Anna Jablonskaja's play "Family Scenes" selected for participation in the LRDT project "Mes - Ukraine'22" competition: "This play falls into today's context according to what is happening. The action of the play is in a small Russian town, where people leave to fight in Ukraine; where they do various things, where they kill, steal and return home with washing machines to their homeland. I have questions, not in the play, but in general, when the brutal events began, what kind of people, what kind of environment, that they reached such "dehumanization". And the second question is, what will happen when these people come home?'

 

VANYA

Dad, why did you go to war?

NICHOLAS

I don't know. And why did you kill the dog?

VANYA

I don't know... It seemed to me that he doesn't love me anymore...
