Summary/Abstract: Dorota Krzywicka-Kaindel reviews Francuzi (The French) directed by Krzysztof Warlikowski (premiere at the Ruhrtreinnale: 21 Aug 2015). The author gives a detailed description of selected scenes of the performance, empahsising the precision of their dramaturgy and praising the acting, stage design and music. She also points out that Francuzi is a statement about the dilution of the quality of art, standing against the impoverishment of culture. She claims that the performance is very distinctive and has a strong impact on the audience.
