Rimas Tuminas' adaptation of two novels by fellow Lithuanian, Grigory Kanovich, is a dreamy, ruminative, comedic road trip, centring around the parlous fortunes of Eastern European Jews at the start of the 20th century. This visually striking production was captured by Stage Russia HD at the Vakhtangov Theatre and is performed in Russian with English subtitles.
