Sisters Mao

"What is it like to be the wife of Mao Zedong, to manage the Red Guards, and to determine the direction of the art of an entire nation? What is it like to be a communist and an avant-garde artist... in America of the 60s? What is it like to search for your path when you are not liked by those around you or by yourself?
Three main characters. Three parallel stories about how to be a woman, how not to get lost in the shadow of talented and heartless men — how to stage a play that convinces others of the righteousness of your ideals.
“It is immoral — but then all great deeds that have remained in history and have not been washed away by its flow are also immoral. If necessary, she would have killed not only her sister but also herself. It was a conflict of two rights, in which both sides must be ready for death.”"
