Sledi minljivosti / Ślady ulotne / Traces of Ephemeral
This is a story of man and his relationship with nature – the nature which we are part of; which has the ability to renew itself, to die and re-return to life. Unreal atmosphere and the constantly blowing wind that can destroy, but also gives hope for the birth of something new, raise the question – are we observing the moment just before the hero awakens, or before he collapses in the deepest sleep of no return?
G_girls: Ginny
A film about socially generated boredom and lack of opportunities of a group of young people – with fatal consequences for a cat.
Skateboarding Is Not a Crime

LIMBO
The term ‘limbo’ mainly refers to the state of not waking up. Moreover, in Catholic theology this state is synonymous with an abyss or Purgatory.
The whole film is maintained in raw game of colours coupled with ambient music, forcing viewers to follow the main character into the depths.
Limbo is a story about intimacy. It depicts loneliness and emptiness. It is a film about dying or maybe falling asleep.
