Mały palec

Young offenders Tomek, Leszek and Seweryn want to celebrate another successful theft: left with no other alternative at such a late hour, they enter a Vietnamese restaurant. The gang members regard all Asians as "Chinese" and deserving of nothing but hostility. They are offensive towards the restaurant owner, even discriminatory, and yet he refuses to react, that is until push comes to shove.

An intimate, cinematic portrait in this, Tomasz Cichoń's third short film, which captures the group dynamics of the youths and the progression they undergo from self-assertive arrogance to humility and resignation to a seemingly unavoidable fate. WMH
