PROMETHEUSES
POLISH TITLE: PROMETEUSZE
The light of the fire illuminates the surrounding darkness. It warms the heroes' shivering little bodies. Their joy, however, does not last long – they must take action to keep the flame alive.
And yet not all of the charming creatures that inhabit the wooded land seem to want that.
What dangers lie in toying with the elements? And is it possible to give it up? A simple, seemingly light-hearted animated tale about the dilemmas faced by society.

Director of animated films, born in 2000 in Białowieża. Since his first Lego block animation at the age of 8, he has won over 20 festival awards for his amateur productions. Currently, he is studying at the Film School in Łódź. In addition to traditional animation techniques, in his films he employs his own inventions, such as stamped animation or slimline dolls. He explores socially relevant issues and the observation of the conflict over the Białowieża Forest is an important inspiration for him. His filmography includes "Attic" (2013), "Scream" (2016), "Our Anthill" (2017), "Assassin’s Smile" (2019) and "Reason" (2020).
