Towards the Sun (W stronę słońca)  | cykl For English Press Monday

Kasia i Robert sprzedają dom i wszystko, co posiadają, i wraz z trójką dzieci wyruszają kamperem w podróż życia. Pogoń za wolnością staje się prawdziwym testem relacji w rodzinie. Kryzys w małżeństwie jest nieodłączną częścią przemiany, jaką przechodzą rodzice. Swoje wyzwanie przynosi też dojrzewanie chłopców.

Kasia and Robert, along with their three sons, take a bold leap from their conventional lives into an RV, embarking on a journey with no set destination, guided only by a longing for freedom and closeness. As the miles accumulate, the stark contrast between their fantasies and the realities of road life unfolds. Can leaving everything behind and venturing into the unknown truly unlock the path to happiness?

This visually stunning road movie, which spans four years, traverses nine countries, and covers 50,000 kilometers, doubles as an incredibly intimate family portrait. While it transports viewers through scenic vistas from Bulgaria to Georgia and Morocco—practically allowing them to feel the wind in their hair—the true essence of the film lies in the personal transformations experienced by its characters. Thrust outside their comfort zones, each family member is forced to confront their inner selves. Kasia and Robert navigate new dynamics of intimacy, Leon faces pivotal decisions alone, and Tymon and Titus learn life’s lessons through the lens of their travels.

'Toward the Sun’ masterfully weaves a subtle narrative about the search for harmony, joy, and freedom. The film offers a rich, multifaceted view of partnership, parenthood, and familial relationships, cleverly balancing the trials of conflict with the beauty of compromise. It stands out as a thoughtful meditation on change, the unexpected joys found in life’s imperfections, and the profound impact of a journey that turns into a destination itself.
