Forest

Asia and Marek bought an old house near the Bialowieza Forest in eastern Poland. The oldest forest in Europe is a refuge for them and their three children from a world gripped by many crises. They spend their days keeping bees, listening to the sounds of nature, watching bison and deer. But they are not the only ones seeking safety. In addition to the animals, people are beginning to appear in the footage from the cameras they have installed in the forest. Refugees who are not welcome in Belarus or Poland. Confused, hungry, injured. A family used to protecting all living creatures sees it as their duty to help them. Even at the risk of losing the paradise they have created.
