Slovenska drama v prevodu / Slovenian Drama in Translation

This play by Draga Potočnjak is based on the Balkan disaster. Against the backdrop of a bloody war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, a human story of torture and means of torture is exposed.

"When you’re not here, I miss you. When you’re here, I can’t stand you. Everything is as it must be."

“It happened yesterday – it’s happening today – somewhere …”

This is a story about a father abusing his daughter, but it is worse than that. Even those people in the story from whom actual help would be expected, such as the police inspector and the priest, both merely take advantage of their position and make profit from the helplessness of a girl driven into a state of extreme distress.
