Searching for the key to the text, largely worn by numerous interpretations, the director finds an unexpected and unique technique: the performance is played in the sign language. Chekhov's text is transmitted to the screen as subtitles, and "sounds" in the viewer's imagination with the very intonation he wants to read it.
Leaving provincial backwater, serving science, working - everyone in Prozorov’s family agrees with each other, and everyone strives for happiness. The characters can not understand until the very end how the tragedy is born from this common impulse, not only because they truly do not hear each other. The further into play the more rapidly mood and atmosphere changes, and recognizable Chekhovian motifs sound more desperately.
The play was successfully shown at the "Territory" festival in Moscow.
