This is an automatically translated description

An old house that is crumbling before our eyes. A strange family: a despotic father, a Jewish mother who, under the threat of death for herself and her son, disowned her parents during the Second World War; the eldest son is a dissident, the younger son is a security sex officer, and the daughter is mentally ill. The attempts to resolve the issue of inheriting the cursed house, which has witnessed many unpleasant events, are both painful and grotesque, as is the family breakfast offered by the head of the family for this purpose. The main antihero of the play is this luxurious, despite its terrible condition, functionalist mansion that has shaken the fate of many generations of the Pompe family.

In the first act, we get acquainted with the relationships, problems and psychological traumas of this family, and in the second act, the family's story is put together into a complete picture, to the last, so to speak, piece of the puzzle. Is it just about bourgeois morality and an attempt to repair broken family relationships? No, it's not just that. It is about the fact that it is impossible to fix such relationships only with certain technical measures.

This parable goes beyond a single suffocating family drama. The author has brought to the public some deeply private generalisations from the life of his own family, so each actor in the play is not only a specific image, but also the personification of hundreds of similar people who surround us in life.
