The lazy evenings of the long weekend are the perfect time to relax with a good film. On this occasion, VoD.MDAG.pl has prepared a special collection of lighter films about travel, music, friendship and being yourself! A journey with a piano to the heart of the Himalayas and a meeting with girls who show that they won't let themselves be judged by their weight are just some of our film recommendations for the upcoming days. You can buy one-time access to the films for 9,50 PLN or buy a pass for several films!

"Piano to Zanskar," dir. Michał Sulima
”Piano to Zanskar” is an award-winning British documentary film which tells the story of Desmond Gentle, a 65-year-old piano tuner from London, who, facing his future in retirement, “sitting in deck chairs and eating lemon drizzle cake”, decides instead to take on the most challenging and perilous delivery of his four decade career: transporting a 100-year-old upright piano from bustling London to the remote heart of the Indian Himalayas.
"The Broken Circle Breakdown," dir. Felix Van Groeningen
Elise and Didier fall in love at first sight. She has her own tattoo shop and he plays the banjo in a bluegrass band. They bond over their shared enthusiasm for American music and culture, and dive headfirst into a sweeping romance that plays out on and off stage - but when an unexpected tragedy hits their new family, everything they know and love is tested.
"Between Us," dir. Dorota Proba
Three couples decide to have an honest conversation initiated by a set of seemingly simple questions. Slowly, space for an exchange of hidden emotions and confessions is created. "Between Us" is a depiction of contemporary love with a generous seasoning of humour.
