Directed by Lithuanian choreographer, Anželika Cholina, this multiple award-winning Vakhtangov Theatre production of Anna Karenina tells the story of Tolstoy’s classic novel entirely in contemporary dance. In this way, Cholina succeeds in finding the equivalent of Tolstoy's words in harmony and movement, with every gesture holding meaning. The distinctive music of Alfred Schnittke helps to reveal the inner turmoil of the characters and their depth. Winner of the "Villanueva Award", Best Foreign Performance, International Havana Theatre Festival; Winner "Crystal Turandot" Best Debut Performance, Olga Lerman.

In order not to continue living in fear and torment of conscience, the writer writes an incriminating article on himself and his colleagues in the writing workshop in a Samizdat magazine. Since that day, he has been in disgrace, colleagues and friends have turned away from him, there is a vacuum around him. Every night is the last for the writer, he is waiting for a person to come after him who will silence him forever. This man will one day come out and appear as the hero of his new and last book, which, alas, no one will read.
