The screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Korek Bojanowski and actress Nel Kaczmarek.

Even though Maja has devoted her entire life to acting, she does not believe in herself and her abilities. She believes that she is in the majority of students, who will not find a job after studying at a theater school. Therefore, after graduating from acting, she plans to apply for marketing and management studies. Everything changes when a new director crosses Maja’s path. The charismatic man is expected to lead students to graduation. The director, giving Maja the main role of Lady Macbeth, restores not only her love for acting, but also her self-confidence. However, it will soon turn out, it won’t be the diploma performance that Maja sets as her main goal, but exposing the true nature of the director.
