Poland 2022 – Director: Lidia Duda – Original with English subtitles – Length: 84 min.
Zosia, Oskar and Kinga go to boarding school to learn braille. Separated from their families, the children have to get to grips with their new situation by themselves. The three quite different characters become the most important people in each other’s lives. They laugh together and console each other. At eye level with the protagonists, the film shows how a deep bond develops. Katharina Dolles
