Lev Landau: Nora and Mother

Nora's marriage brought about a huge change in her life: she came to the national capital Moscow from a remote province, and lived in a secret institution with excellent conditions together with her famous scientist husband. Nora's mother came to visit her for the first time since her marriage. This was not only a normal greeting from a mother to her daughter, but also a comprehensive observation and traceless oppression of her life - there seemed to be problems between Nora and her husband, and behind the family conflicts were deeper divisions and sighs. The closed scene traps the characters and blurs the boundary between reality and drama. Nora's "parallel life" seems to be performed step by step in a small world.
