BON APPETIT
REPRESENTED BY KFF
It is a portrait of a small Polish catering business with carefully selected protagonists. She is always displeased, hoping to win a scratch lottery. He is a hardworking optimist, satisfied with their monotonous life in the centre of Warsaw, and yet out of the way. In their small establishment they prepare food for offices (that do not pay) and for few regular clients. An excellent depiction of the contemporary reality as seen from the perspective of a small business, yet with a universal message.
