Manqurt

Adapted from the writings of the great Central Asian author Chingiz Aitmatov, Manqurt recounts the chilling legend of a captured warrior who is tortured until he loses all memory of his past, his family, and his own identity. Transformed into a mindless slave, the Manqurt becomes a tool of his oppressors. This powerful theatrical adaptation confronts themes of cultural erasure, the loss of identity, and the enduring bond between a mother and her son.
