The protagonist of the film is Pasha, who works as a teacher in his hometown in the Ural mountains. In the face of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, he decides to make a secret film about the life of the school which has been militarized and indoctrinated with state ideology in 2022. The film is a testament to the teacher’s steadfastness in exposing the state system ruled by an autocrat. Patrycja Paczyńska will talk about fake news, how to use reliable information about current affairs and how to choose a proactive attitude in social life that translates into building a civil society.
