A remarkable production called Displaced Women was shown\u00a0at the\u00a0Festival\u00a0of\u00a0Independent Belarusian\u00a0Culture\u00a0in Wroclaw. It is based on \u201cThe Unwomanly Face of War\u201d by Svetlana Alexievich as well as several works about Polish and German women at war.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe idea came to me after I had read \u201cThe Unwomanly Face of War\u201d by Svetlana Alexievich, the German book \u201cA Woman in Berlin\u201d and \u201cBerlin. Memories of Polish forced laborers in the Third Reich\u201d.\u00a0They inspired me to create a play,\u00a0although I actually believed that everything had been already said about the Second World War. However, I noticed that women\u2019s experiences on different sides of the conflict had a lot of similarities. It seemed interesting to me to stage a play with actors from three different countries\u201d, the director Monika Dobrowlanska said.<\/p>\n<p>There are three actresses in Displaced Women. They are from Belarus, Germany and Poland. So you can hear Belarusian, Russian, German and Polish languages on the stage.<\/p>\n<p>Sviatlana Anikei (Belarus):<br \/>\nThe main topic is women at war.\u00a0It\u2019s a global tragedy.\u00a0When they start a war, they don\u2019t think about the consequences for people. As my role demonstrates, after WWII everybody was reluctant to accept the fact that women had fought on the front lines. Alexievich wrote about it. Only heroic deeds were celebrated after the war, nobody wanted to discuss real life and real problems.<\/p>\n<p>Anna Poetter (Germany):<br \/>\nThe play tells the stories of three women. The Second World War was\u00a0a major disaster for Europe, which changed the lives of every human being. In all of the countries we perform it, there are different opinions regarding what happened at the time. The Germans, for example, recall the responsibility for the Holocaust and they also remember what happened in their country when the Soviet army entered its territory. However, they didn\u2019t know that there had been female soldiers in the Soviet Army.<\/p>\n<p>Monika Davidziuk (Poland):<br \/>\nTalking about the play, we talk about three different stories, which are in fact only one story. My discovery was that there were no questions about guilt. It is important that these stories are based on individual experiences.\u00a0They should be listened to and understood, shared and passed on and not condemned.<\/p>\n<p>The play Displaced Women in Wroclaw was accompanied by live music.<br \/>\nIts tour was sponsored by the Senate Department for Culture in Berlin.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Belaruskie Radio Racyja, Bialystok, Grodno, 98,1 FM A remarkable production about women at war Wroclaw Tragedy of women at war, tragedy of women on the frontline.
