Paweł practices boxing, but the challenges he needs to face are of a completely different nature. Above all, he will have to start to live independently after leaving the children’s home. His adoptive sister inherits an apartment, which prompts her to take a step towards a new life. The protagonist remains at a crossroads, because it is difficult to become an adult without any good role models around. Moreover, a sports career does not guarantee any stable future. Regardless of what happens in Paweł’s life, what matters most is his relationship with the person closest to him.

- Tadeusz Chudy
Director, cinematographer and photographer. He studied philosophy and film studies at the Jagiellonian University and film and television image production and photography at the Krzysztof Kieślowski Film School in Katowice, as well as at the Visual Narration Laboratory of the Łódź Film School. His goal is to make films and photography an experience for the viewer. He believes that from experience, understood as experience, an understanding of the “other” is born, and understanding leads to tolerance. He carries out long-term projects, delving into the slices of the world that interest him; time allows him to get to know people and spaces different from his everyday life. He encapsulates the experiences he has gained and the stories of the people he has met.
