A fictitious future biography of Sławomir Sierakowski, the influential Polish left-wing intellectual and activist. A debate about the attitude of the New Left’s leaders, their methods of activity and choices of presenting ideology in art. The most important charge is: ideology that is not backed by practice gives rise to theoretical hallucinations. One must not merely talk about politics, one must practice it for such are the realities of a democratic country. komuna//warszawa combines elements of performance art, contemporary dance, live music and video art, characteristic is their auto-ironic approach to the function of ‘Theatre’ or the ‘Actor’.
