Poland2022documentary47'Konkurs polski (2023)
Darek is 24 and after 10 years of education at a school for students with intellectual disabilities he needs to confront himself with adulthood. At a film workshop, he receives a camera that will enable him to tell a story of the final weeks at his favourite place from his own perspective. In his musings about trifles as well as matters he cannot fully understand, he is accompanied by his best friend, Daniel. They experience the world in their own way and, at the same time, enable the viewer to see the reality through their eyes for a little while. Full of warmth and humour, the film is a story of friendship as a universal value that joins people regardless of any differences or limitations.
