description: In the late 1980s a group of young men in their early thirties leave Warsaw for a few days in the mountains, partly out of boredom, partly for an adventure. Their plans go wrong when they get lost, argue, and finally, accidentally, kill a border guard. Flight is now their only option...extreme flight through a totally inhospitable snowscape. External landscapes and internal mindscapes blend as each man confronts his own life and most secret fears. White Raven explores the universal themes of lost youth and friendship, against the backdrop of a rapidly changing society.
