Insights into the history of the Ruthenians through three different time periods and places. In the music and dance dramatic piece, we will be transported to the Ľubovňa Castle from the glorious times of the early modern era to the inglorious and difficult times within the Austro-Hungarian Empire. A traditional Hutsul wedding and an unconventional multicultural wedding in Uzhhorod in the interwar years will show the contrasts of the social classes of the 20th century. We will also find ourselves in the present day, reflecting on our contribution to modern history. The biblical text contains an absurdly sounding plea to God for the rebirth of today’s consumerist man.
