Kluzowicz reports on how the director worked with the main protagonist, an amateur actress, focusing on the process of creating a script based on her biography, and how she communicated with Kaegi. The author mentions the special objects used in The Roof that facilitate the protagonist’s existence in the home and city space. Describing the course of the rehearsals, she points out the social dimension of the play – the audience learns the true story of blind Karolina, her everyday life and perception of the world.
