Marcel Łoziński / Poland / 1993 / 12 min. / 16 mm
Brest-Litovsk is the border between Poland and the former Soviet Union.
European railway tracks end there; further on they are wider. In order for
international trains to continue into Belarus and beyond, Belarussian workers
have to change several thousand wheels under the wagons every day. Is this
the border between two worlds?

In the 1970s and 80s, political repression in the USSR took the form of

was clearly a mental illness that required medical "care."

Such Is My Karma / Jestem zły
Grzegorz Pacek / Poland / 2001 / 29 min. / Video
The director gives a group of pre-adolescent children a quick lesson in
filmmaking, and then hands over the camera to them. The group's ensuing
rampage and street savvy antics are captured with compelling naturalism,
revealing some chilling images of childhood in the poor neighborhoods at
the outskirts of Warsaw.
