Playground
Childhood can be a dangerous game
Directed by Bartosz M. Kowalski
A dark, tension-filled drama about childhood innocence colliding with dangerous impulses, told through an intimate but deeply unsettling encounter.
It's the end of the school year and today is the last chance for 12-year-old Gabrysia to tell her classmate that she has fallen in love with him. She sets up a secret meeting and blackmails the boy to show up. But what was supposed to be an intimate talk spins out of control and leads to an unexpected ending.
