Breaking the waves

Get comfortable and close your eyes. I'll tell you about love. About a powerful feeling that can give strength, but can also expose our greatest weaknesses. About what brought Bess and Jana together, even though no one gave that relationship a chance. I will tell you about people whose love has been put to the test. About an accident that changed their lives at the moment when it seemed the happiest. For love is tears of joy, but also of suffering. You think he can't hurt? Close your eyes. A woman walks along the sea coast... You see that?

One of the loudest films by Lars von Trier in a stage adaptation for two actors — Aleksandra Przyand Dariusz Chojnacki face the cult work. What did we miss so far when we watched the story of Bess and Jan? What have we forgotten when we focus on oppression and violence? Justyna Łagowska, one of the most interesting Polish directors and scenographers, invites us to a laboratory of love, relationships and relationships, in which nothing is as it seemed a moment ago. “Breaking the Waves” is her first performance at the Silesian Theater
