A lost bison tries to get through a forest full of soldiers. A strong visual metaphor for the situation on the Polish-Belarusian border.
As a wall rises in the ancient Białowieża Forest to stop the influx of migrants, a lonely bison tries to return to the herd among trees teeming with soldiers. A strong visual metaphor encourages reflection on the stories of people futilely seeking a path to a better life through the very same woods.
