Newbe
Tomasz Olejarczyk
2009, 0 h 20 minLonely, 17-year-old Ania (title Newbie) looks for an acceptance in a group of peers who like dangerous urban games. Her efforts make her undermine the sense of the moral code she lives by. Having nothing to lose, Ania invents a neck breaking game which makes the group think, especially its boss – Czarny. A surprising end opens for them a chance to get back to normality. The film is based on Anna Czajka’s short story “The Power of Word” and refers to the second Commandment: “Thou shalt have no other gods before me”.
