One Apple Tree… Premiere!

One Apple Tree is a drama that touches the deepest, most unspoken wounds within every Kazakh family.

After years of estrangement, the siblings gather under one roof at the invitation of the youngest brother, Maksat, to celebrate their mother’s 60th birthday… Yet a single careless word reopens an old family wound and the evening ends in tragedy. A crumbling home, conversations heavy with resentment… And at the centre of it all stand their mother, Dәmеткен, and the youngest son Maksat, now living with a disability.

An apple tree withering once severed from its roots becomes the symbol of the story.
Why did Maksat’s desperate, trembling voice fail to reach the hearts of his elder siblings?
Why could it not melt the ice that had long formed in their souls? At what moment did we drift so far from our foundation, our traditions, our values, our kinship?
How did the Kazakh people, bound by a single ancestral root, begin turning not into strangers, but into enemies?

This performance will shake your spirit, cleanse the depths of your heart, and gently push you to look at your loved ones with renewed warmth, before it is too late.
