This concert-musical style performance is a deliberate act of cultural vandalism against Poland’s national epic – an attempt to reinterpret the poet’s masterpiece through the lens of Polish unruliness and social dysfunction. The story is transplanted into a world reminiscent of Polish council estates and “Trailer Park Boys,” where rap and slang become the natural forms of expression. The director examines his own local roots – Raszyn near Warsaw – in search of the foundations of a manic nationalism that continues to dominate the ideology of suburban and so-called “provincial” communities.
