Based on the play by Neda Nezhdana
"The Maidan is alive, as if it is the rhythm of my heart," declares young Anya, looking for her beloved Orest in all the hospitals and underground hospitals of Kyiv. True to the words "will or death", she became a participant of the Revolution of Dignity in 2013-2014, which gathered more than a million people from all regions of Ukraine. Combining different realities and forms of writing, revealing at the same time interventionist theater, documentary, virtual and medieval mystery, "Maidan Inferno" follows the intersecting destinies of Ukrainian revolutionaries from the moment of the beating of Berkut by security forces to the annexation of Crimea and Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
The first Ukrainian play written in France, staged by a French theater and published by a French publishing house (Espas d'Instan).
