After publishing a eulogy for his renowned watchmaker grandfather in a national newspaper, Andrew is confronted by an accusation in the comments section. The charge sends him on a 19,000-kilometre journey through Ukraine and Europe with daunting questions—and the rare timepiece he's inherited. Retracing his grandfather’s footsteps as a soldier and immigrant, he unearths a family mythology that has astonishing implications for the present.
In a landscape where history is both weapon and wound, Andrew’s search pulls him deep into the stories of a shrinking Ukrainian village, into the fallout of Russia’s full-scale invasion, and into the silence of the dead.
Originally featured at Lincoln Center, NYC, The Division is a gripping new work on identity, legacy, and the slyness of memory. With his acclaimed blend of documentary theatre and deeply personal storytelling, Kushnir faces the unspoken truths that shape both our individual and collective histories — and our here and now.
