This interactive theatre performance is inspired by the memories and narratives of the citizens of Novi Sad of the period of NATO bombing 1999. The performance explores the theme of communion in a community that arises in specific circumstances and raises questions about why we need an extreme to behave "human" and why such relations that were established in the community during that period are not permanent - when the danger passes, everything is same again. The performance is based on the gathered material (memories, photos, audio-visual sources, newspapers collected by Novi Sad citizens) and contains interactive parts which call for audience participation. On that path, together with the actors, the audience reviews itself - through thoughts, movements, and words. As a member of POD Theatre, Branka Bajić has left a lasting trace in the previous Bitef Polyphony editions, especially in the presentations of the projects and the community theatre performances.
