“VYRAJ” WINS GRAND PRIX

It was a good end of the month for Agnieszka Nowosielska. Her win in Estonia was quickly followed by a victory at the International Film School Festival Tetouan in Morocco.

International Film School Festival Tetouan aims to promote student productions made in film schools and academies. The program includes documentaries, animated films, and dramas from all over the world.

One of the films featured during this year's edition was Agnieszka Nowosielska's Vyraj. The live-action short produced at the Krzysztof Kieślowski Film School in Katowice left Morocco with a Grand Prix.

Weronika had been living a quiet and idyllic life until she learned about her father's illness. Suddenly, the world around her cries out for attention and reality slips out of control. While playing with his friends, her son Pietrek experiences something that makes him believe he possesses healing powers. Is it possible that the boy could improve his grandfather's health?
