THE WAY
POLISH TITLE: DROGA
REPRESENTED BY KFF
The Krakow climbing scene has always been full of personalities from the edge of science, culture and art. For many, sport was a window to the world. The invisible force that draws you into sport is like a drug. Sometimes it doesn't seem to make any sense, but without it everything else loses its meaning as well. Whether you represent the country internationally, climb rocks, or do it just to push your boundaries - it sets the rhythm of your life.
Work and passion. Sport and art. Contradictions that make up one personality. A black and white journey into the life of a man of many talents.
