EXIT POINT

PUNKT WYJŚCIA

The film character has an unusual passion. He is ready to sacrifice a lot for it, including his own life. Exit Point is a film about decision making; in  order to be free one must sometimes slavishly follow one’s nature. This is also a story of sacrifice in the name of superior values. What’s the prize of  being free and is freedom indeed worth the biggest sacrifice?
