Play written by Wajdi Mouawad, one of the leading contemporary writers and Director Ivica Buljan, one of the most successful European directors with all-star Slovenian cast connects the stories of its protagonists in New York, Berlin and Tel Aviv. It debates on several important topics: is heredity genetically defined, are memories and forgetfulness equivalent. Are family secrets revealed and passed down from one descendant to another, or can we free ourselves from them? How many generations must take responsibility for Auschwitz? Can we, as peoples and nations, live in a brotherhood as known to the genera of birds?
