Original title
Hajduki

„Hajduks – what a weird name. Hajduk is a name of fish. Hajduk is a name of a footman serving the aristocrats, dressed in traditional Hungarian garment. Hajduk is a bandit ravaging the Balkans. Hajduk is a refugee from Montenegro fleeing to Bosnia and Herzegovina. Last but not least, Hajduki (Hajduks) is a name of the village located in the Opole region. The main hero reminisces about a place, which, in a sense, is the beginning and the end of everything. Hajduks is a story about an attempt to define yourself in a world in which you are obliged to profess certain values and have certain attitudes. Is it really possible to avoid defining oneself in this reality, to stay neutral? It is also a play about the burden of loneliness, about a need of mutual closeness” – the author says.
