Nieskończoność dalekich dróg. Podsłuchana i podpatrzona Zofia Rydet
Andrzej Różycki's film is not only a portrait of Zofia Rydet, a female artist, and her working methods, but also a capture of maturity and great passion. Rydet lets the viewer into her world, allowing them to observe her and peek in without restrictions. With great calm, she talks about the anxieties that accompany old age, the inevitable processes associated with it, which, however, are unable to stop her enormous desire to capture moments that pass irretrievably. Rydet's mission is endless, just as the roads she photographed are endless. The artist's skills were a way of life for her; thanks to them, she created, got to know people, saw beauty, shared it, loved, observed the changing landscape, and communicated everything that words cannot express.

Behind the scenes of a popular deli on New York's Upper East Side, undocumented immigrant workers face sublegal wages, dangerous machinery, and abusive managers. Mild-mannered sandwich maker Mahoma López has never been interested in politics, but in Jan. 2012, he convinces a small group of his co-workers to fight back. Risking deportation and the loss of livelihood, the workers team up with a diverse crew of innovative young organizers and take the unusual step of forming an independent union, launching themselves on a journey that will test the limits of their resolve. In one rollercoaster year, they must overcome a shocking betrayal and a two month lockout. Lawyers will battle in backroom negotiations, Occupy Wall Street protesters will take over the restaurant, and a picket line will divide the neighborhood. If they can win a contract, it will set a historic precedent for low-wage workers across the country. But whatever happens, Mahoma and his compañeros won't be exploited again.
