SUCH MIRACLES DO HAPPEN
One day, all the statues in the area come to life. They leave the roadside shrines and pedestals and calmly set off straight ahead, all in the same direction. They do not even stop for a moment. People watch the phenomenon with growing anxiety. None of them knows why and where they go. Only a little girl with a boneless body marvels at the procession of the unusual figures with pure fascination.

WELCOME HOME
A film about a contrast between living in nature and living in a city. Nature is represented by a voice of a female respondent and the city is depicted by the visual part following a man living in a city. Apart from different routines there is also a difference in the perception of nature and how should we treat it.

ELECTRA
Electra rethinks her 10th birthday, mixing memories with dreams.
