POLISH TITLE: BOCZNICA

REPRESENTED BY KFF

A holiday season has begun on a siding in the Hel peninsula. Holiday makers make new friends, have fun together and talk about what makes them happy, sad, surprised or fascinated. New bonds are forged, summer love is in the air. Vacation in a railway car, which used to be popular once, is now inevitably becoming history. The film is a nostalgic attempt at evoking its unique atmosphere.
