Polish director Lidia Duda and producer Adrianna Rędzia introduced their project, a film that follows a couple who left the city to go and live and raise their kids in their own rural paradise in the Białowieża Primeval Forest. However, their idyll is disrupted when strangers turn up: thousands of refugees start crossing the Polish-Belarusian border. The family tries to help the refugees, who are often sick or hungry, even though the law in Poland forbids it. The producer explained that global politics came knocking on the family’s door, and they urgently needed to redefine what is right and what is wrong.
