Summary/Abstract: Describing Oliver Frljić's play I Hate the Truth, which won the special jury award and the audience award at this year's BITEF Festival, the author creates a synthetic outline of the director's work. Frljić's plays are an attempt to bring the countries of the former Yugoslavia to terms with their hidden and unspoken sins. Wichowska also sees the socio-therapeutic dimension of the performance she describes. Frljić deals with problems that have interested him for years, such as the historical archive, the influence of family micro-narratives on the national macro-narrative, the relationship between individual and collective memory and various manipulations of memory. He makes the protagonists of the play his family and himself.
