The tragicomic play tells a story about the communication attempts between a father and his daughter. After five years of disconnection they meet at the hospital waiting room. The wish to know about the close relative unavoidably mingles with the grudge and the wish to bite. 

The famous TV personality struggling with the addiction and the daughter who represents herself as an adult child of alcoholic and openly shares her experience online seek to find a common language. However, as the abyss between the generations is so great, both sides become the equal opponents – vitriolic, fragile and… just. 

The play will make you laugh. Every one of us seeks to be understood and recognized, but sometimes we first need to recognize the other, which is difficult, especially since the “other” looks like you…
