- Absurdist tragicomedy about the processes in Belarus and outside it. What will happen if they reach the point of absurdity? Funny, scary, unexpected.
- A young Belarusian artist leaves her husband behind in Minsk to visit her friend, the elderly painter Andrzej Strumillo, in his idyllic manor house in Poland. For her, the trip offers a welcome diversion from city life; for him, it's a break from a lonely existence marked by old age. The pleasant routine of drawing, talking, horse-riding and chores around the house is interrupted only by calls from the artist's husband, who wants her to come home. But she wants to stay longer-she isn't finished here yet.

- Out of the 30 students that graduated from Karalina's class at a Minsk conservatory, only one chose to remain in the country. The totalitarian Belarus is gradually becoming deserted, and well-educated people are migrating in droves to the furthest reaches of the world in search of happiness, better career opportunities and a dignified life. I Grew Up As You Slept is a story about emigration, nostalgia and longing for one's family, friends and country. Karalina's film journey, during which she visits her grandmother, who lives in the depopulated Belarusian village of Achaniany, is primarily a journey through time to the land of childhood and memories.
- Belarus 2020. A wave of protests spreads across the country after the rigged presidential election. The repressions are terrifying. A film from a Belarusian director living in Poland.
- On the night of August 13-14, the authorities started a mass release of protesters against rigged presidential elections from prisons on Akrestsina street in Minsk and Zhodzina. All these days hundreds of relatives waited, and some continue to wait under the walls of the detention facility for their children, wives, husbands, brothers, sisters, parents and friends. Detainees come out of prisons and tell about the violence and abuse which they experienced. Information about this is instantly spread on the Internet. People already know the truth. Film director Andrey Kutsila will depict not the stories of torture victims themselves, but their relatives. Under the walls of the prison on Akrestsina street, they are in some emotional state of uncertainty, confusion and hope. The camera will "pick up" individual faces from the crowd and supposedly overhear conversations of Belarusians, filled with pain, anger and despair. Under the walls stands a mother, about 35 years old, she is looking at the barred windows and shouting: "Nastya. Here is mama, Nastya!".
