This is a drama about love. Shakespeare\u2019s play Romeo and Juliet<\/em> here meets Aeschylus\u2019 The Persians<\/em>, but the time is different, the experience is more complex, and the plot is, of course, different. The love of a young woman and a young man from warring families is not an uncommon motif in art, yet it is always monumental. A post-war perspective on the formerly hostile camp and empathy for their losses and suffering, as Aeschylus depicted in The Persians<\/em>, represents the strength of a people and their culture. Although rare in art, its power is a pinnacle of civilization. The drama of both young and older characters makes this story of two families\u2014Bosniak and Serbian\u2014epic. The necessity of the action in this drama has a tragic magnitude, and the fact that it was inspired by real events makes the story even more impressive. Life, indeed, has the final word.<\/p>\n

In the daily struggle of life and death during the war, in the battle between Eros and Thanatos, as the ancient Greeks described mythic conflicts, love was born despite the omnipresence of death. This is a play about such a love\u2014a great, fateful love. Can such a love overcome everything that stands against it\u2014society, history, ideology?<\/p>\n
