Drawn with a trembling line, the story of an intergenerational relationship. Sometimes it’s worth letting go – to yourself and others.

Film expert recommends

Another short animation from the quite large output of the still relatively young filmmaker. Expressive, as if childishly cartoonish, simplistic drawing style, but serious subject: how to be a good son and parent. Podolec shows that the cycle of life is inexorable, and that our childhood misadventures and ambitions and complexes from adulthood spare no one, returning continually in each generation. It is necessary to know how to let go: it is enough to be. A small animated treasure of Polish cinema.
