Secret of Confession is a short film that tells a story about the director’s grandma. This elderly lady is a deeply believing Christian, who is every single day confronted with bad manners and rude behaviour of Polish young people and thinks that all of them are godless. The film has been made in Szubin — the hometown of the director. It was her diploma film, made for one of Scottish universities. The film was made in completely unprofessional conditions. The “cinematographer” was Agata’s father and the film was shot with a digital reflex camera.
