•Documentary
Unemployed thirty-year-olds Mark and Piotek, unlike their resigned neighbours, resist their fate and move to London for a job. A confidential camera follows their journey from their hometown to the city, where they find no work and end up on the streets. Despite this, they persist in responding to job ads, seeking food, feeling homesick, and dreaming of owning a small bar. The documentary, reminiscent of Ken Loach’s films, captures their resilience and the social challenges of a changing Europe.
