The central topic of the play written by Árpád Schilling and Éva Zabezsinszkij is the role of women in society – which entails examination of the role of men in society. What can a man do with his testosterone when he does not have to hunt in the woods anymore? And what should a woman do if she has ideas, if she can do a job like a man? Can a woman say that she does not want a child? Can she say that she wants to live the same life as a man? And what about men who want to stay at home with their baby, who are satisfied with their wife to work? Does it mean they are not men? How much is this permitted by a patriarchal society? What are the reactions, fears and expectations?

Nada is 38 years old. Single. She waits for the train in a small village railway station. Men arrive to the station, all of them traveling somewhere. The woman's presence has a strong influence over them, their good and bad experiences with women emerge: past and present conflicts with mothers, fathers, and girlfriends. Each has his own story, his own reason for why he became what he is now. The performance is a journey in space and time. Without set, without any accessories. There are only actors on stage. And the stories of the characters they play.
