A family gathers in a small apartment to celebrate the coming of 1993, and with it Slovakia’s independence. The mood is light and laughter fills the room. But as the night wears on, tensions and long-hidden grievances begin to surface. What starts as playful banter gradually spirals into heated arguments, accusations, and revelations that no one expected to hear. By the time midnight strikes, the Varchal family will never be the same. Michal Kunes Kováč’s sharply observed chamber drama offers both biting humour and emotional depth as it examines the fragile bonds that hold people together.
