Girls' stories, teenage days. Seemingly nothing happens, but so much changes. Jagoda and Zuzia are neighbourhood friends who meet at the local square. Sometimes they go for ice cream or to the playground. And they always have a lot to talk about. Being a girl is a special experience, and they are just entering puberty. Biology, hormones, pimples, first rebellion, first love. The first period — when will it come? Will there be anything else? Adults can't always give support or answers. And the girls see more and more. School absurdities, unwanted rules, dilemmas to be solved.

Director
Aga Borzym
Aga Borzym is making her debut as a director. Her day job is editing and producing short film forms. She once became an engineer by accident. She graduated in multimedia techniques from the Faculty of Mechatronics at the Warsaw University of Technology, and in photography from the Academy of Fine Arts in Poznań. In her free time, she animates. Privately a mum of two boys, with ceaselessly girlish energy.
