The year 1914 the budding artist pseud. Witkacy returns to his fiancée Jadwiga, whom he left in the care of his friend, the prominent composer Karol Szymanowski. What happened during his absence? Blaga is a story about the birth of an unconventional artist, love and fear of responsibility, the price of living with an artist for whom the greatest art is himself. A short film inspired by the work and life of Stanislaw Ignacy Witkiewicz, one of the most original Polish artists of the early 20th century.

Pawlak and Kargul – the protagonists of the cult-favourite trilogy “Our Folks” – had been neighbours in a village in Podolia before they ended up in the Recovered Territories. Even then, it was one explosive neighbourhood.

They meet for the first time in years. In the family home, where the past presses in, reality and longing collide.
