A young Polish pianist returns to his small hometown for the summer, where he witnesses the mounting conflict between his friends and the town’s newcomers.
Tymek studies piano at the Warsaw Academy of Music. On returning home for the summer, he hangs out with his brother and friends, flirts with girls and plays the piano while the others rap and smoke. The main hang-out place is a new kebab bar in town. The group returns day after day, ordering kebabs and causing trouble with the Arab staff, who have only recently arrived in Poland. Tymek tries to befriend one of the employees, Yousef. But hostility and racism are insidious, and violence looms large. Damian Kocur’s impressive feature debut is inspired by true events, performed by non-professional actors and was awarded the Special Jury Prize in the Orizzonti section of the Venice Film Festival.
