HEROES

A sci-fi telenovela about humanity's promising prospects, featuring music by Vladivoynya La Chia.

While holograms of Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin haunt visitors to a twenty-first-century museum, the descendants of humanity live seemingly comfortable lives in polyamorous family units, accompanied by state-regulated domestic AI. Their main entertainment is hypersensory virtual reality, through which they experience a world that has already vanished. Yet the discovery of a demon from the ocean depths forces them to question the meaning and legitimacy of their own existence.

Will they be the ones to write the final chapter of the short and tragicomic history of homo sapiens on planet Earth, or will they step out of their comfort zone and become heroes of their own story?

A new work by Anna Saavedra, author of the acclaimed play Olga (Horrory z Hrádečku), who this time has plunged into the future rather than the past. The play was created with support from the Czech Literary Fund.
