Film synopsis (roughly translated from Polish):

The struggle. Its scale is irrelevant or the ideology that stands behind it, no matter whether it is two people or a million. Followed by only a scar – the bloody traces the path of hate … “POH” is a short tale of beasts, which lie dormant deep in the human soul and push them into the abyss of blind hatred, rage and anger. Chasm that leads to the inevitable destruction and annihilation.

Production on the film has lasted over 2 years. There are two models of fighter pilots and 2 pilots facing off against each other. The constructed environment is full of giant clouds and over 10 square kilometers of three-dimensional Alps. In each of the planes lies several thousands of rivets and screws which were manually deployed.
