The Perfect Afternoon

‘THE PERFECT AFTERNOON is my very personal commentary on present-day Poland. The film shows how I see the country and its recent history and what I like about it. On the one hand, there is the generation of young people trying to find their way in the new times and managing quite well, although they live far away from the center of the country. On the other hand, there is the parental generation, whose roots are in the period of Solidarity, and thanks to who we now live in a free country.’ (Przemysław Wojcieszek)
