Director’s statement
Despite its semi-fabulous entourage, it is a story of growing up and choosing a path. It is about the first love, about the first encounter with the evil and cowardice of adults, about difficulties of being a leader and leading your friends, especially if you do not know to the end whether you have chosen the right path. Finally, it is about how our childish actions build the future adult life. After all, everything is interconnected in this world, and sometimes in order to save a friend you need to clear the old church from the rubble. And then, when the church is open, the friend is saved and the enemy is defeated, you already know exactly what you will do in life.
