About event
A chronicle of a man and later a woman and at the same time humanity over several centuries, in which historical truth is interwoven with artistic fiction. A work about the desire to create and the creation of desire.
In her poetic and ironic novel, the feminizing writer Virginia Woolf explored two or more genders, the identity of a person and society, and the essence of art, and came to the conclusion that the future appears hopeful. And we wonder after a hundred years if it was all just an illusion.
