The Newbie
A lonely 17 –year-old Ania (the Newbie) is seeking acceptance in a group of peers playing risky urban games. She pays for her strivings with a loss of faith in values. With nothing to lose, Ania invents a daredevil game, supposed to provoke the group and especially its leader-Czarny, to think. The surprising end of the film gives a new chance to return to normality for its characters. The film is based on the short story 'Moc słowa' [The Power of Word] by Anna Czajka and corresponds to the second Commandment: 'You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain'.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a tense psychological duel, relying on the fragile inner world of the protagonist and the harsh laws of the teenage pack. It explores the boundaries of risk, the price of acceptance, and the painful search for identity.
What lingers after viewing is a sense of unease about the games people play to belong. The finale offers a quiet, hard-won clarity rather than easy answers. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Tomasz Olejarczyk

Watch alone or with a teen, in the evening, to fully absorb its tense coming-of-age mood.
