Polish and Jewish pupils of a prewar school in a small town are followed lesson by lesson up to today: growing dislike, a bestial massacre modelled on Jedwabne, the wish for revenge. The class falls apart but stays bound by bad memory. The play answers Tadeusz Kantor's Dead Class: there, the ghosts of classmates signal irretrievable loss; here, they are ghosts one would gladly be rid of.
