The play 'Handwork or The Secret of One Letter' is a crime-black comedy about love and three women. The first woman needs a customer for a mysterious, illegal business she is involved in. The second woman needs the services of the first due to problems with her husband. The third woman needs a man, specifically the one causing trouble for the second. Exploring this darkly humorous, grotesque, at times absurd piece, Jean-Claude Danaud (written in 1977) raises two questions as the theme of the play: What is a person capable of doing in the absence of love? Where will that take them? Through the adaptation of this play, the cast has pondered what answers the time we live in offers. Instant ideologies? Hatred? Thousands of self-help courses? Religion in the form of fashion details and false morality? NGOs? Designed models and patterns of desirable appearance and behavior within a chauvinistic world or within the world of quasi-emancipated women, self-proclaimed feminists? All that the system incessantly imposes on us where absolutely everything has become a commodity.
