STYPA - drama

It is a touching story about family relationships, values and experiences from the past. It was they who laid a shadow over the life of the main characters. The story of a sibling who meets at his mother's funeral. He, a refugee emigrant, living since martial law in Germany. She is a widow forced into a difficult existence, full of fears and helpless in the face of life's problems. The background of this story is Upper Silesia, far from the idyllic image of the land of eternal happiness. An image based on the myth of the perfect “family” and values that are supposedly the cure for all the evils of the world. Finally, it is a story about the search for freedom in the face of political and moral changes.
