Jana returns to her childhood village and is confronted with a home that reminds her of past traumas, a brother on the brink of drinking himself to death, a John she doesn’t remember, and more questions than answers. As she tries to untangle her relationships, childhood sneaks up on her—but time has distorted both memories and narratives. What really happened?

This is the grand story of a small community and the people who inhabit it. We move across time and space, piecing together this drama bit by bit—a woman’s reckoning with her own history.

Jag for ner till bror, presented by Teater Västernorrland, is a stage adaptation of Karin Smirnoff’s acclaimed trilogy about Jana Kippo.
