A romantic-eclectic-punk story about how to be yourself when there’s not just you living in your body, there’s also someone else.
Barbora is three years old and she’s playing with cubes under the kitchen table. In that same kitchen, just a few metres from the child, Barbora’s mother stabs her husband, Barbora’s father, to death. Next the mother stabs herself to death. It is then that Sylvia makes her appearance in Barbora. Barbora and Sylvia govern one and the same body. Sometimes Barbora has the ascendancy, at other times Sylvia. Barbora struggles with feelings of guilt and the need to live healthily, not drinking or smoking. Sylvia swaps one lover for the next. Barbora believes in truth and love, Sylvia despises love and doesn’t understand truth. Sylvia casts men out to sea, Barbora weeps when they go. Sylvia characterises herself as a worldly opportunist and adds in so many words that she enjoys being a moral collaborator. Barbora has had it drummed into her head that her perception of the world is wrong, which is one more reason why she is confused. Sylvia is a destructive force. Barbora is dissatisfied with her life. Sylvia is contemptuous of Barbora. Both of them love the same man: they love Milan, though each in a somewhat different way. Milan Borguľa is married, Sylvia has two other lovers and Barbora... Barbora needs Milan to know the truth, and also to tell the truth to his wife. So that all may know the truth. When Barbora has had enough of Sylvia’s escapades, she will begin to talk to Goad.
