THE LOGBOOK

POLISH TITLE: DZIENNIK POKŁADOWY

A poetic and melancholic story about an unconventional, slow life in harmony with nature. About a man who, despite his mature age, had to start everything anew, yet was able to find his place and notice the meaning, joy and taste of life again. Stefan is over 60. He created an oasis of peacefulness in the hustle and bustle of city life, his little kingdom: for sixteen years he has been living on a barge moored in Warsaw on the Vistula bank.
