The production features songs, based on poems by Benno Poplyansky,
Sergey Timofeyev and two unknown authors.
Billionaire Clara Tsakhanassyan arrives in tiny and impoverished Güllen. Here she was born and raised, here she met her first love, so, of course, the lady, known for her generosity and charity, will not refuse to invest in the restoration and prosperity of her hometown. This is how the residents of Güllen think - and they very much count on the mediation of Alfred Shill, once the lover of young Clara. And Clara... Clara is not against it at all: she offers the Güllen people a billion - half to the city, half to the residents. However, she has one condition...
Indra Roga's production is a funny tragedy about the inevitability of retribution for a made choice, about the power the anonymity gives to a society, and about the bizarre forms of love.
