Old love never dies. Besides, it is also blind. Completely blind! That is why it forgives everything. A play by the master of theatrical comedy, Miro Gavran, tells a story about a love that was not defeated by gray daily life, social condemnation, or betrayal.

After 20 years of marriage, Ana, like many women, began to think that her husband was a real loser… Honestly! However, that was not the worst thing that could happen. Ana, a charming geography teacher, had to endure public humiliation on top of all her marital disappointment: her Ivo, who had worked for pennies his whole life, was scandalously sent to prison for a bank robbery! And just as Ana manages to put her shattered life back together, finding peace in the arms of her second husband, Marko, a cool school principal, a law enforcement error comes to light: Ivo, without wasting any time, returns home – to his ex-wife and her new husband…

The confusion in this house and in people's hearts seems hopelessly unsolvable, especially when Ivo finds a new crush – the charming doctor Marija. Is it possible to forgive betrayal and regain lost trust? Is it possible to erase disappointment and keep only bright feelings? Is it possible to close one's eyes to the passion for a third person burning in a loved one's eyes? No, not everything is possible. But who, if not women – Ana and Marija – will find a solution.
