Like foxes among wolves

Eliza knows that it’s not good speeches that change the world. It’s intelligence. Along with imagination.

Amid the devastation of war, a game offers hope and connection. When the Nazis invade Warsaw in 1939, Eliza is taken in by Professor Borsuk, a former math professor. In their small house, as the city crumbles around them, the professor invents a board game that helps Eliza understand how everything in the world is interconnected. The game not only helps her overcome a traumatic block in solving math problems but also becomes a tool for survival. As the game gains popularity, Eliza begins to see its principles in the world around her, wondering if the same rules could be applied to winning the war. Working with the Resistance, she uses the game’s logic to manage supplies and assist unarmed units. Her efforts come at a great personal cost, but she remains determined to fight for freedom, playing her role until the end.

• Even after her tragic death, the game lives on. Today, it’s known as “super farmer,” a testament to Eliza’s legacy and the power of connection in the face of war.
• Vibrant and adrenaline-fuelled action, the emotions of adolescence, the imagination.
