Synopsis

As eight-year-old Agata boards a full bus from Poland to Belgium by herself, she notices that those around her seem different. The magical realism of Autokar authentically recalls how strange and inscrutable the adult world can seem to children, lending the story a subtle humor and nostalgia.

This film screens as part of Shorts Program 2: Animation.
