BREATH

“Breath” is an intimate story about love, death and suffering. The life of the heroes takes place here on the border between waking and dreaming, reality and memories. We recall the characters of our grandparents so that through the prism of their lives we can better know and understand ourselves. This is a simple, touching story about a pair of actors, an old bed, a suitcase, a sheet and a projector that is used to show family photographs and sometimes shoots like a German soldier's rifle. It is both funny and tragic, and quite ordinary, as it is in life. The story, told honestly, sets you in the mood for your own memories and deep reflections on the essence of life. What's left of us? Maybe just such a story?

In this art, everyone will find a reflection of their deepest longings, desires and fears, their sensitivity and strength. These philosophical reflections, which take place through the dialogue of the actors with the audience, tend to pose an important question: can love free us from the fear of death?
