The screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Monika Majorek.

After a long absence, Ola, the eldest of three siblings, decides to return to her hometown. At first glance, everything seems familiar, but in reality, her family’s life has already moved on. Her mother has a new partner, her father’s favorite car is missing from the garage, and the family house is soon to be sold. The relationships with her brother, sister, and mother are far from perfect. Ola knows this is her last chance to make peace with the past and begin again. Helping her on this journey are family video tapes and photographs discovered in the attic, filled with warm memories.
