‘Forgotten’ is a film about two young women from the former PGRs areas - the gigantic labour camps that were set up for farmers during the communist heyday in Poland. After the change of the political system the camps have been left in poverty and penury. The women - Ania and Gosia - decide to travel to Warsaw in search for a better life. Here they are confronted with situations that put their convictions, values and religious beliefs to the test.
