Oxana Sankova crafts and performs an autobiographical production delving into the influence of government ideology on ordinary individuals living within or outside the state, using Russia as a prime example.

In ‘The Poem Without a Hero’, Sankova theatrically utilizes her own perspective as a migrant in Belgium. She delves into themes of fear, shame, nationalism, and their impacts on daily life. Diary excerpts and documentary materials are interwoven with fictional text, creating a layered polyphony of despair.
