There is a national festival, ‘In the Land of Dumplings’, in Bychawa. This peculiar event and a spectacular photograph of a NASA astronaut have a common denominator – a small commune in the region of Lublin. The view is beautiful from afar, but what do little homelands look like from up close? The satellite picture taken from space by Jeff Williams becomes a pretext to show the local community. Against the backdrop of spectacular decorations in this rural commune, its residents live their regular lives to the rhythm of tractors and amateur music making.
