  • Area: Vefsn
  • Venue: Mosjøen Kulturhus

A profound notion on the brutality of war, the Nazis' distorted racial ideology and dehumanization.

SONA/ZONA is a dark and visual experience, among other things, inspired by the work of Soviet prisoners of war during the building of the Nordland Railway. Before the performance, explore a thought-provoking exhibition of photographs, artefacts and facts about the war. The exhibition is intended to enrich and provide a backdrop to the themes explored in the performance.

Experience the power of the theater and take a piece of history with you.

The prison camps between Mo i Rana and Fauske were established to utilize the labor of Soviet prisoners of war. Surrounded by the same mountains we look up at today, the prisoners tried to persevere.
