We must hope for our own dreams to come true, but also accept the fact that the world is much stranger than our ideas about it. - Rebecca Solnit, "Hope in the Darkness" Are we living in a time of cultural devastation? The achievements of a democratic state are undermined, the values ​​that have guided us throughout our lives turn out to be irrelevant, our intentions are distorted and our authorities are destroyed. What happened to social trust? Why is our life increasingly influenced by denunciations and insinuations, devaluation of achievements and undermining of achievements?

Bowie w Warszawie with my music

Image
A radio drama about a big and, above all, a small world and a desperate search for freedom in it. Based on text by Dorota Maslowska The 1970s decade continues. David Bowie, traveling from Moscow to Berlin, makes a short stop in Warsaw. His seemingly insignificant stay in the Polish capital became legendary as the embodiment of what is unsurpassed and inaccessible, a streak of color and glow in common grayness. Meanwhile, platoon leader Wojciech Krętek cannot sleep in one of the stuffy and cramped Warsaw apartments. A sensitive and emotional policeman tries to solve the case of a certain Dusidam from Mokotów.

Alice in Wonderland is one of the most important and original works of English literature. It is a mystery novel written over 150 years ago by an Oxford professor. It is a tangle of thoughts, dreams, school poems, songs, math and language games. And it is into this tangle, into this riddle, we want to invite young viewers. Let's all feel like Alice, let's fall into the rabbit hole with her and go on a journey together through a world where nothing is as it seems. To a world full of extraordinary creatures, unexpected meetings, non-obvious solutions, as well as music, dance and humor. To Wonderland. What's all this for? To experience an adventure, to get to know a different world, but most of all: to get to know yourself better. Not to understand - it would be too easy, it might even never be quite successful. To get to know your own strangeness, to choke your own wonder. Come on! Follow the White Rabbit and watch out for the Red Queen - she may behead you! CREATORS Translat
