Franko's "Stolen Happiness" is an extraordinary work. Its phenomenon lies in the fact that for over 100 years the viewer has not been able to identify the hero and the antihero and find out who is to blame in the love triangle. And this time we offer you a special director's vision of a complex play, dramatic and intellectual. It is a search for answers to eternal questions: how to find God within oneself and master the same precarious balance in one's own soul. And all this is through the prism of the relationship between Mikhail, Anna and Nikolay. "Stolen Happiness" for the viewer is an opportunity to go your own way from an exciting, intense search to the discovery of the long-awaited truth.
