“Shklatara” by Artur Klinau is set in Minsk at the end of 2010, in a former glass recycling collection point transformed into a nonconformist gallery, publishing house, and bookshop. Its characters are real people from the postmodern underground of a country ruled by a postmodern dictatorship.

For these characters, reality has been replaced by quotations about democracy, dictatorship, hatred, and love. Everything becomes a game, but one that inevitably leads to catastrophe on December 19.

After that day, the characters can no longer return to reality, and their game turns into something between the real world and a terrifying nightmare.
