An animated protest created by 49 animators in 48 hours as a response to the decision of The Constitutional Court about abortion ban in Poland. Moved and broken by the situation in our country, we, a group of students from the Animation Department of Lodz Film School have decided to act. We strongly oppose the recent events in our country and it’s shameful that such a ruling has been pushed through during this extremely difficult time of pandemic. The Constitutional court has issued a ruling that will end legal termination of pregnancy for fetal anomaly. Many of us are afraid right now, this is why we want to express unity in a just cause.

A woman exists as an incomplete form of herself. She goes unknowingly through various stages of life. Suddenly, her real self wakes up and forces her to fight for liberation.

The life of an elderly person is cheerless. Whatever monotony and weariness fail to kill will be annihilated by illness. But is that really the case? Bronka and Zygfryd, with their last ounce of strength, decide to salvage their shared memories and even the tiniest fragment of the love that once connected them.

A prehistoric fish takes its first step on dry land, a cuddling T-Rex couple is about to become extinct after a meteorite impact, while in Poland it is 1963 and the Winter of the Century is in full swing. Chimneys cheerfully spit out clouds of black smoke. A young coal loader is madly in love with a beautiful crane operator. The heat of his love will not let him freeze as he struggles with the piercing frost and trudges through snow drifts guided by wild desire. Our hero and heroine, still totally unaware of global warming and excessive carbon dioxide emissions, will play their parts in a human comedy of love and death.

Set in a surreal backdrop, we see victims' and predators' roles reversed. It shows the world we live in from the perspective of those who are most vulnerable.

In order to save their rehab facility, four cross-addicted anonymous alcoholics undertake a very risky task to smuggle two tankers of spirit across Poland. For their own safety, they kidnap their therapist for the trip. However, the journey turns out to be more dangerous than they expected. After them – or rather the illegal alcohol they are transporting – is a Customs Officer, who is not entirely who she says she is. From then on, everything gets complicated.
