What is the Napkin singing about?

ABOUT DREAMS COMING TRUE – The fourth year acting students from the Lodz Fuilm School under the artistic supervision of Mariusz Grzegorzek made the first ever full-length diploma film.

ABOUT COURAGE- They were not scared of limitations, they told stories straight from their hearts; stories which try to be authentic and wise and at the same time are crazy and not so wise.

ABOUT ASKING QUESTIONS, IN ORDER TO REACH INSIDE ONESELF, IN ORDER TO GET TO YOU.
