DANNY BOY
The protagonist of the story inspired by a popular song Danny Boy is a young man wandering aimlessly the streets of an anonymous city. What enhances his feeling of loneliness is the fact that he is distinctly different from others. One day a girl appears on his way – will she accept his otherness?; maybe she will reject him? The film is an ironic social satire; it discusses a current problem of alienation of an individual and individual’s place in the structure of the society.
