Cēsis Art Festival / Duncan Macmillan LUNGS. Daile theater performance

"Anyway, “Lungs” directed by Dmitry Petrenko and the team of actors is wonderful. True, smart and human."

Undīne Adamaite, Diena

They are two and young. Woman and man. When they start thinking about having a child, there are many reasons why it wouldn’t be a good idea. For example, the planet is dying, so it would be responsible not to create anymore children, but to plant more forests ... However, most people decide to produce more offsprings instead of thinking about healing the globe's lungs. So, why are they confused?

Personal disasters, unlike those predicted by scientists for the planet, come rapid and unexpected. Stops you breathing, without any warning. How to recover? And why?

In this one-act love story, viewers will have the opportunity to see themselves, witnessing a lifelong relationship between a loving couple and revealing a large dose of their life's comedy which, in their everyday hurry, has  turned into fear, uncertainty, “big” decisions, caring for the planet and maintaining their relationship.
