March Caresses

Polish province in the early spring of 1968. The rhythm of high school life – on the one hand, classes and official celebrations, but on the other hand parties, first loves, wine and cigarettes – is getting more and more disturbed by politics. For the young characters, the anti-Semitic campaign becomes a bitter lesson and a test for friendship resulting in the first painful goodbyes in their lives.
