A play about the Soviet emigrant of the 1970s, Boris Golovker, who, despite his ordinariness, represents genuine interest for our generation. Boris Golovker was an unremarkable, nearsighted man prone to reflection. Among his contemporaries, he was considered a failure, and his unremarkable surname seemed to emphasize his mundanity. Throughout his life, he did nothing noteworthy, and the realization of this burdens the protagonist. He wants to change everything and achieve recognition. However, after he got what he desired, satisfaction with life never came to him, for even after leaving the country and changing his life, a person does not change inside. This simple thought is relevant in modern society, where people, wanting to feel happier, change clothes, cars, phones, and chase after greater wealth.
