Nikita Chekanov

What's wrong with me? Why did Mom leave me? Why don't we know each other? And these are not all the questions that seventeen-year-old Dasha is now asking herself and the world. However, they all invariably come down to the figure of the mother. In search of answers, Dasha escapes from the suffocating care of her father and finds herself next to her mother who has forgotten how to love.

A stage adaptation of the 1869 novel ‘The Idiot’ by Fyodor Dostoevsky, performed at the Vasilyevsky Theatre.
