Nada Gambier

Life in Petaouchnok – a locality that is so remote that it may not even truly exist – acquires a touch of general validity through its normalcy: people recreate themselves through hate, humour, and seeming indifference. And they tell stories that feel familiar to everyone. For ›Once upon a time in Petaouchnok‹, Nada Gambier is working with professional performers and amateurs alike.
