“The Red Cross” was created by the Belarusian theatre company “Pryehali” and is based on a novel by Sasha Filipenko. Through the stories of Tatyana Aleksandrovna, a survivor of Stalinist repression, and a young man named Alexander, the play connects the past with the present.
What remains of a human life when its story can be reduced to a few lines on a piece of paper? Who has the right to decide who gets to live and who must disappear from history? What happens to a person when a system deprives them of the right to determine their own fate? And what can we do to ensure that the memory of such lives does not disappear with those who lived them?
“The Red Cross” offers no easy answers. Instead, it invites us into a conversation: about memory that must not be lost, and about humanity that must be preserved even when the world around us seeks to destroy it.
