Fathers and Sons


Vörösmarty Theatre, Székesfehérvár (Hungary)


Based on the novel by Ivan Turgenev

Arkady, the young college student returns to his parents' house fot the summer holiday. His friend Bazarov, with a profound interest in natural sciences, comes along with him. They both think similarly about humanity: they believe the world needs to be changed entirely. But this summer will bring about unexpected and fateful changes for the two friends, changes that will cause them to continue their lives separately. Fathers and Sons is a panorama picture of generations, families, the conflicts between young and old, the inevitable changes, but also the preservation of values.
