This play written by the Croatian author is a work that follows the fates of four generations of women of a family during a turbulent century. It is a work that sheds light on the problems in modern society by observing the state of the world from the perspective of women.
The events of the work take place in a villa built in 1898 in Zagreb, Croatia. This journey through time takes place over 75 years, where events focus on three winters, on three different points of development of the country, in 1945 during the creation of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, in 1990 until its dissolution, and then until in 2011 when independent Croatia aspires and negotiates to join the EU. While the focus of the play is only one house and one family, in that house is written the whole recent history of Croatia and together with it the main political forces and ideological changes that have shaped modern Europe.
"There are three historical periods of transition that have passed or continue to be in process the peoples of our region, both Albania and Croatia with a complete resemblance to the realities of three periods: in 1945 with the coming to power of the communists, in 1990 the arrival of a fragile democracy and in 2011 still unresolved property and the attempt to enter Europe. These periods are observed through a family's journey to Zagreb, Croatia. Three long winter nights, in three historical periods with decisive events that change the logical course of these characters, as well as with personal events "says the director Rozi Kostani.
Sipas saj, kjo vepër trajton historinë e një familje eklektike, të mbajtur së bashku nga guximi për të mbijetuar. “Nga mbetjet e monarkisë, përmes komunizmit, më pas demokracisë, luftës dhe pranimit eventual në një Evropë më të gjerë, katër breza të grave të Kos, secila më e pavarur se tjera, të cilat duhet të përshtaten për të mbijetuar. E vetmja konstante është shtëpia: e ndërtuar nga aristokratët, e ndarë, e nacionalizuar, ajo është dëshmitare e brezave që kalojnë”, shprehet regjisorja Rozi Kostani.
