“The Mandala” in a thriller convention tells a story of a mother and son struggling with a loss.

“Mom Is Coming Back” tries to answer questions like whether it is possible to journey in place, and if one can replace the Himalayan amplitude with the Beskidian hills. Ever since Weronika was born – suffering from cerebral palsy, her mother Weronika struggles with these questions attempting to continue her previous passions in a new life with her daughter.
