Summary
Lejla Kalamujić: Fists full of clouds and other dramas
Lejla Kalamujić conquered us with a great collection of stories Call me Esteban, and with this collection of dramas she will keep us under an equally strong impression. Šake pune oblaka i druge drame objedinjuju eponimni igrokaz, Ugasimo svjetlo te Ljudožderku koja je već uspješno izvođena u regiji. The works are connected by contemporary social issues: the stigma of homosexuality and transgender people, the loneliness of old people and growing up without parents. Delving deeply into the fabric of society, Kalamujić shows the devastating effect of the collapse of the state and family on its inhabitants, that is, members, who lose their sense of belonging after it. Autorica ipak pristupa likovima s velikom toplinom i empatijom te ostavlja mogućom drukčiju budućnost. Na zastranjenja čovječanstva Kalamujić odgovara nadom.
