In 2021, a three-kilometer-wide border area between Poland and Belarus becomes a military zone: migrants attempting to enter Europe are pushed back by guards. Maciek, who lives with his family on the Polish side, takes in an exhausted Syrian refugee, 27-year-old Alhyder. A tense and sensitive documentary that, without sensationalism, allows us to observe the emotions on the faces of the often silent family members and their grateful guest. The situation is disastrous, there is no solution, but the warmth of human contact contrasts with the brutality of a system that traps us all.
