The brothers Ubi and Obi live in Lailonia in the city of Ruru. The authority over the city is held by the god Maior. The basic law of the god Maior is that everything for humans is at the bottom, what for the god is at the top. The brothers live according to the laws established by the god Maior, until Obi rebels against them. Soon the brothers separate and Obi dies. For breaking his laws, the god Maior sentences Obi to stay in hell. Ubi also dies, and since he always obeyed the god's laws, he goes to heaven. The brothers are separated even after death. Ubi is not happy in heaven and wants to go to hell. The god Maior, however, does not agree. A revolt breaks out in heaven. God Maior abdicates. From now on, the living and deceased residents of the city of Ruru have to fend for themselves.

Documentary film based on unique found footage shot in the 1920s by count August Zamoyski. A valuable insight into Polish artistic life between the world wars.

An animated film in loose material set to music by Johann Sebastian Bach. The imagery in the film is inspired by the magnificent interiors of Gothic cathedrals (Reims, Chartres). The composition of the film follows the principle of viewing a Gothic cathedral: first, the author shows the facade, then "enters" the interior and shows the lower part of the building emerging from the shadows. Then the camera focuses on the columns and pillars, the niches with reliefs, to reach the magnificent rose window crowning the nave. The bright light falling into the interior makes the real shapes disappear and is replaced by light, a symbol of lasting spiritual values.

An impression that bears traces of the filmmaker's subjective attitude towards the work of Gustav Klimt. The film uses, among others, the paintings "Turbulent Water," "Philosophy," and "Medicine."

Meticulous and mesmerising paint-on-glass animation is characteristic for this atmospheric film by the Polish director, who takes us on a bus ride one Monday afternoon. The melancholic ride through a rainy city reminds the main protagonist what it would be like to escape the everyday routine of jammed streets.
