The festival program includes:
„Life of students abroad”
Moving to another country is always difficult. People face a lot of difficulties. Ranging from feelings of loneliness ending with problems of housing. This is very difficult, including for students who move to a completely unfamiliar country. The first month is always the hardest, as students learn to re-use public transport, explore the area and look for an apartment. This is what our film is about. And specifically about a student from Kyrgyzstan, Adil, who went through all this. He went through all the difficulties that he told about in our film. And now he has his own company, which helps students not to go through this difficult path alone.

„Leaving Ukraine”
The documentary is about David Chaava, one of the million of Ukrainians, who had to leave his native city fleeing the war.

The reality of civil life during the war, feeling of guilt for leaving your country and fellow citizens and other pros and cons of moving on are highlighted in the movie.

A seed has been planted, but how long will it take to the blooming day? Daniel is the organizer of rally in solidarity with A4 Revolution in Warsaw. As a Chinese living “outside the wall”, he is trying to do something more to support those who dare to speak up in China, and he believes the protests were just the beginning.
