An intimate documentary-style drama exploring a boy growing up as the eyes for his blind parents.
Based on Rasa Bugavičute-Pēce's acclaimed book and directed by Rolandas Atkočiūnas, this production approaches documentary theater to examine the complex boundaries of love, dependency, and early responsibility. It offers an intimate look at a young life shaped by exceptional circumstances.
Through the story of Jokūbas—who serves as the eyes for his parents in a community of blind residents—the play shifts away from the mechanics of blindness to question what it truly means to see, carry burdens, and grow up too fast.
