Łemkos are one of several quantitatively and territorially small ethnic sub-groups situated in the Carpathian Mountains region, who also identify as either Rusyn or Ukrainian. The main character of the drama Łemko is Orestes. This old Carpathian resident expects soon to die, but before, he would like to present to children the untold story of his life.
