Inertia

Set in the backdrop of early 90s Eastern Europe post the fall of the Soviet Union, Inertia unearths generational trauma, resilience and the silent forces of a Soviet Union hangover. Through brutalist realism and dreamlike sequences, it explores the fate of Frida, a woman bound by the weight of an abusive past, as she navigates the fractures of love, motherhood and survival. Inertia, inspired by the life fragments and memories of the playwright's Lithuanian grandmother, is an ode to peace and womanhood, surrounding the lives of women in quiet suffering and a gradually swelling rebellion.
