Project 'Elsewhere' it is a subjective analysis of the Polish diaspora. From construction work to digital nomads – the reasons for going abroad can be very different. The project focuses mainly on examples of migration after accession to the European Union in 2004. Are we leaving for something more than work and money? Are we really doing better outside our birth country? I will try to tell you about all this in the form of a non-standard audiovisual essay – a short animation generated in a 3D program with a hint of humour and irony.
