Felix and Lucia are quite ordinary couple. They share happiness and boredom together, fight over toilet paper and spaghetti sauce. But when Lucia decides to leave Felix, he needs to confront his past and face his childhood traumas before he can fall in love with Lucia again. Beautiful, epic and non-linear contemporary family drama with two generations reliving each others mistakes.

Ross reveals the essential pieces of the puzzle, a code of human loneliness, strive for answers and persistent search, a relationship drama that grows to cosmic proportions.

Vaiva Grainytė, Lietuvos rytas, 24 October 2007

Relationship between three families - passionate battle

Y.Ross performance gets actors to extraordinary precise acting, stage design and director's thoughts get rid of any chance of sentimental reading of the play. Ross reveals the essential pieces of puzzle, a code of human loneliness, strive for answers and persistent search, relationship drama that grows to cosmic proportions.

The set is a changing room at the skating rink and each cabinet door opens a world into a different space and also an inner drama of each character, all broken up by stark documentary video work following actors on the real skating rink. The full scale backdrop of the set is a snippet of a local suburbs, sleeping hollows holding our most secrets behind colorful curtains.
