About the Event

Listy z Wilczej (Letters From Wolf Street)

Poland, Germany | Polish, English, Chinese, Arabic, Romani | 2025 | 97 mins | Dir. Arjun Talwar


After a decade of living in Warsaw, Indian filmmaker Arjun Talwar still feels like an outsider. In a witty and deeply personal attempt to finally "fit in," he turns his camera toward his neighbors on Ulica Wilcza (Wolf Street). What begins as a quest for integration quickly evolves into a soulful, cinematic exploration of a single kilometer in central Warsaw—a street that holds the secrets of both the past and the present.


Guided by his friend Mo, a fellow immigrant-turned-filmmaker, Arjun uncovers a kaleidoscope of charming, eccentric, and melancholic inhabitants. Through his lens, the supposedly homogeneous and politically rigid landscape of modern Poland is revealed to be a place of deep contradictions and unexpected connections. Fresh from its World Premiere at the 2025 Berlinale, Letters from Wolf Street is a poignant reflection on the meaning of home, the solace of the everyday, and the invisible threads that connect us all.
