FILMS TO BE SCREENED IN BOTH POLISH AND INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION:
 
CONNECTED by Aleksandra Maciejczyk
 
The film presents a couple of fifty-year-olds - Chris and Viola on a day of skiing. Chris is blind and Viola is his guide. They prepare for skiing early in the morning. Chris assembles Bluetooth kits on their helmets that will connect them to each other. They are getting to the mountain top on a chairlift. The higher they get, the more we learn about their lives. At the same time, atmospheric conditions change and a thickening fog falls on the slope. When Viola and Chris finally reach the top, they have to find each other in the fog. A short, simple documentary about love.

Artistic supervision: Jacek Bławut, Andrzej Sapija
