, the second feature from Piotr Domalewski, winning two prizes including the Grand Prix.

This comedy-drama, discovered at the San Sebastián Film Festival, traces the journey of Ola, 17, one she shares with many young Poles, marked by immigration, grief and a thirst for independence. Ola (Zofia Stafiej) finds herself having to go to Ireland in order to collect the body of her father, an economic immigrant who died on a construction site. A deeply European family story, produced by Akson Studios (Poland) and MK1 Productions (Ireland). To note that the film also received the Cineuropa Award given during the festival.
