What makes a girl “good”? Is it the girl who brews coffee for her parents? The one who wants to help her family? The one who picks flowers for her mother? Or the one who stands up for herself against suspicious characters?
But why, despite doing all of this, does she still feel like she’s done something wrong?

Sponge decides to run away!

The butcher has disappeared.
131 Roma were convicted.
No bodies. 41 Roma were publicly executed.

The new performance of the Independent Theatre of Hungary, The Cannibals, commemorates a story reminiscent of the Dark Ages.

A seemingly average teenage girl is being questioned by her mentor to understand why she did what she did, why she takes the decision that she is taking.
