Winter(Zima)

Winter is a short, just three-minute etude, which opens the viewer to two symbolic orders. In one you can find a picture of the contact between old age and youth. An old man lives in a house in a far away place. Two boys play in the snow. The villa attracts them with its magnetizing mystery. The boys throw snowballs. One of them accidentally hits the window and then terrified little ones see an old man watching them. The child's fear of strangers and old people makes them run away. Only when the path among the trees is already empty, the old gentleman smiles kindly. Piotr Sobociński refers in his film to our children's fears, instilled by fairy tales of fear intertwined with fascination.
