Summer. Half a day in the life of 10-year-old Mika, who lives in the countryside with his family in reduced circumstances.

MUBI's take

A moving, subtle, and ravishing study of the intimate life of a family from Polish director Grzegorz Muskala. With playful staging and without the need for dialogue, this short film follows an introspective young boy as he rubs shoulders with the adult world and makes the passage into adulthood.
