7@nite 2018
- REBIRTH

Krakow was once the center of Jewish world. In the Kazimierz district, there are seven synagogues, and once a year, each one hosts events throughout the night celebrating Jewish culture.

This year's edition was all about reconnecting with Jewish roots,
discovering who we are, and learning about our history.

But it's also a story about being present in the "here and now". The people in this film shared their stories in a human, simple, and honest way. I was invited to create a projection/mapping/film for this year's theme, "Rebirth."

This 10-minute animation weaves a carefully crafted story of memories, identity, joy, and the strength that comes from self-discovery. The visuals unfold across multiple layers, growing in depth alongside the music—from intimate confessions to vibrant, shared experiences within the community.

During the 7@nite event (few hours), this film was screened every 15 minutes, reaching 900 visitors at the High Synagogue.
