Of Places, Dreams, and Theft
Ballada o miejscach, marzeniach i kradzieży
Synopsis
In post-socialist Poland, a man stripped of his livelihood finds himself wandering through a world that no longer has a place for him. Driven by desperation, he begins stealing from shops, each petty theft drawing him deeper into a private hell of guilt, paranoia, and moral disintegration. As the fragile boundaries between survival and shame collapse, the remnants of his former humanity give way to something feral. A bleak, grotesque ballad about poverty, dignity, and the terrible cost of remaining alive in a world that has forgotten you.
