The animation “NationalAnthem” by Radosław Bajon is a short commentary about Poland, about the birth of hatred, evil and inequality. About the birth of Antichrist, so tiny and yet defenseless, in a patriotic family, or rather… national. This is Poland! Poland, Poland, Poland, Poland, Poland, Poland, Poland, Poland … I am tired of Poland … and that’s it.

This is Poland!
Welcome to the Vistula
These are our billboards
These are our churches
And it’s such a forest than a landfill than
a black over all this
is what the so-smokes and nods
This is our rainbow
She was rude, so a little burned
(Mister D | Dorota Masłowska – Tęcza)

Eagle, eagle, the eagle is flying.
The eagle makes Polish children
It has a crown and has a beak.
Make eagle children.
Poland, Poland, Poland, Poland …
Poland, Poland, Poland, Poland …
Poland, Poland, Poland, Poland …
Poland, Poland, Poland, Poland …
Poland, Poland, Poland, Poland …
(Cipedrapskuad – Krewkurew)

I think
too much I want
too much I feel
too densely I dream too thickly
Crumpled, dirty and gray flag
Today I am ugly, today I am old
I have a headache, total than
Poland torments me, I have a cross
I have a headache, total than. I am tormented by Poland, I have a cross hanging
(Maria Peszek – Szara Flaga)
