The play «My Little Oscar» the actress dedicates to the memory of her father Kacev Vladimir Zelikovich.

The novel is based on the letters to God of a ten-year-old boy who is terminally ill. In these letters he describes his life in the hospital and his friendship with the «Pink Lady», an elderly nurse who helps him overcome his fear of the inevitable. Thanks to her, Oscar lives a whole life in a short twelve days. This is a story about learning to enjoy every day of your life, to accept life in all its forms, to believe, trust and love. It is about life being stronger than death, and faith stronger than fear.
