Desire and the Snow Queen in Montenegro

The play was performed on 03.12.2025. at the Pljevlja Cultural Center, organized by the Secretariat for Culture, Social and Other Issues of the Municipality of Pljevlja, on the occasion of the International Day of Persons with Disabilities.

This story about a girl with Down syndrome, who faces prejudice and ridicule from her peers, brings a strong message of courage, love and friendship.

Encouraged by the fairy tale about the Snow Queen, Desire, with the support of her grandmother, bravely steps forward in the fight for friendship with the boy Kosta.
