Play adapted from the novel by Herbjorg Wassmo.
Dina’s Book is set in the extreme north of Norway. Throughout her life, Dina, lonely and violent, seeks refuge in music, horses, men and numbers. Through her, we see Norwegian society with its rules, conventions and ghosts. Dina is played by the beautiful actress Malya Roman, accompanied by musicians, against background of video images.
In this romantic trilogy, Wassmo describes the story of a woman, a society, a country and nature. It is visual, sensual and musical. Sounds, voices, light, sensations, narration, scenes of daily life, all merge and respond to one another. The world vibrates through Dina like a vast living opera.
