WHERE DO WE BEGIN

by Monika Majorek

synopsis

Three siblings and their mother try to rebuild their lives after the unexpected death of their father. The eldest sister Ola returns to her family home from Warsaw after a two-year absence. She discovers that the house is up for sale, and a stranger is sleeping in her mother's bed. Her family seem to have moved on with their lives, and Ola's stay at home is not welcome. While packing for the move, Ola finds family video tapes. Along with her siblings – younger brother Pipek and youngest sister Ajka – they decide to recreate their childhood photos. Ola strives to bring the three of them closer and reconnect the broken family bonds. Before that happens, recalling painful memories will cause the siblings to clash even more. Ola realises that each of them is dealing with trauma in their own way – alone and unable to cope. By confronting her family, she manages to break the tension that has been lingering in the air.
