A stage poem about the country from which one leaves. How, from what, and for what reason are we leaving? How do we perceive our country? What is our concept of home? Are we more ‘Slovak’ when we live in our homeland, or when we start a new life in another country? The authors of this production, staged at the Slovak National Theatre, raise the following questions: Haven’t we all grown too lazy here, in this place we long to leave? Is the concept of our so-called pettiness a potential catalyst of change or just an expression of a self-satisfying nitpicking? Autoerotic snorting as our hallmark? Eternal dissatisfaction that rarely turns into some activity? Are we, in fact, chasing one another out of here?
