女人的碎片

A feminist family drama set in present day Warsaw, powered by the strength and determination of female characters. A family get-together shows, as if through a lens, the problems and internal conflicts of Polish society.
The protagonist of the play, 30-year-old Maja struggles with a personal tragedy. In order to get back on track, she must question her old life and rebuild from scratch the relationships with her family. “Pieces of a Woman” is an evocative picture of modern women who fight for the right to decide about their own life. Kornél Mundruczó – director, and Kata Weber – author of the script, portrait each character with great empathy – they don’t judge or criticize any of the characters gathered around the family table. The performance employs cinematographic means of expression and captivates the viewers with intimate narrative, the realism of the details and tenderness of the actor’s creations. “Pieces of a Woman” is a second, after “The Bat” (premiere 2012, prod. TR Warszawa), Kornél Mundruczó’s play produced in Poland. Both performances have gained recognition of Polish and international audiences.

Pieces of a Woman (Polish title: Cząstki kobiety), written by Kata Wéber and directed by Hungarian theatre and film director Kornél Mundruczó, recently received international recognition in its film version (available on Netflix). However, the cinematic language, the close-ups, the realism of details were already part of the performance that was made for TR Warszawa in Poland well before the film and was repeatedly honoured with prestigious awards (such as the Swinarski Award, the most important award for theatre directors in Poland). The performance toured successfully at Festival Avignon, RomaEuropa and the Athens & Epidaurus Festival, among others.
