POLISH PROJECT AT DOK EXCHANGE XR SHOWCASE DURING DOK LEIPZIG
The Polish production "Fragility of Unbroken Bones", created by Pola Komorowa (produced by Marcin Marczyk/ Udyssey Creative Technologies), has been selected for the prestigious DOK Exchange XR Showcase, part of the International Leipzig Festival for Documentary and Animated Film (DOK Leipzig).
Described as a hybrid XR documentary and a sonic monument, the project is built upon sound and memory. It draws on the stories of a generation of Belarusians born after 1994, the year Alexander Lukashenko came to power. For those who have never known a reality other than one shaped by an unchanging regime, sonic portraits become living monuments, merging into a fragmented, collective song of resistance. The work explores themes of collective memory, identity, political oppression, social trauma, and oral history.
The presentation will take place on Friday, October 31, from 16:00 to 17:30. During the showcase, XR creators will present their projects to a professional audience and a panel of six experts representing research, funding, production, distribution, art, and technology. The session is designed as an interactive laboratory – a space for exchanging perspectives, co-developing solutions, and advancing projects in the spirit of openness, equality, and inclusivity.
Attendance is open to guests with a festival accreditation or a DOK Exchange XR Conference Pass.
