Pagans

By: Anna Yoblonskaya

Translated by: Rory Mullarkey

 

In collaboration with Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art, Consulate General of Ukraine and Side Project.

 

Synopsis

Oleg’s mother, Natalya, has come back from a long-term mysterious absence to live, unannounced, with he and his wife, Marina. When their daughter, Kristina, returns, soaking wet and exiled from school, Natalya immediately starts in on a crusade to establish “a life of repentance and prayer.” But their neighbor, Bosun, a struggling alcoholic handyman, lends insight into what is and isn’t a demon.

As Bosun says: “The only thing that happens overnight is people find God! Everything else takes a bloody long time!” Pagans is a searing examination of love, faith, family, guilt, responsibility and the true nature of repentance.

When a Mamluk slave ascends the throne without being emancipated, he must be sold and earn his freedom from his new master. Should he follow the law and risk losing the throne or take back his throne through force?

Tawfiq Al-Hakim’s literary classic explores the nature of power and freedom.

Performed entirely in Arabic with English subtitles by an international cast, this adaptation will be a North American premiere.
