Short love stories from the times of the USSR. Documentary interviews taken by Svetlana Aleksievich broadcast the deep memories of the various peoples in the Soviet Union. Second-hand time. But even in the most difficult times, people have replaced the sense of historical accuracy with their personal happy moments.
On stage, no one is able to have their own personal space, everything is on display, none of the characters can speak freely. Each one can turn out to be an executioner, an informer in the secret services, or vice versa - a savior.
Thoughts on the time of the collapse of the USSR, an attempt to hear people with different views on history and life in the communist world. Is this love at the root of every feeling?
