Die Heimat ist 10 Stunden entfernt

In the organizer's words:

The mockumentary tells the story of three young women from Belarus who were politically persecuted and had to leave their homeland. They meet by chance on the beach in Gdansk, and their encounters by the sea become a ritual. They share moving experiences and stories from their lives in exile: of language barriers and attempts to make contact with the locals. But while they try to build a new life, the "rucksack of the old life" remains a heavy burden that is not so easy to shed.
⠀
