The internet gave them no chance. From the very beginning, they faced a wave of criticism, rumors, and questioning of their feelings. Karol Wiśniewski and Weronika Sowa are among the most popular creators on the Polish web—an intergenerational symbol of the internet. They have been at the top for years. And they have been the subject of gossip for just as long. Although they have recorded hundreds of lifestyle videos, it is only now that they are allowing cameras into places that until now only their closest friends and family had access to. The film „Friz & Wersow. Miłość w czasach online” reveals the behind-the-scenes of their biggest projects, the pressure of time and audience expectations, but also the warmth of everyday gestures and conversations that build a real relationship. It is an authentic portrait of a “power couple,” a story of shared passion and ambition that proves that true love can weather any storm, and that family and success can go hand in hand.

Anonymous at the start of his journey, Fox steadily captured the heart of a nation with his Marathon of Hope. However the 21-year old BC native's goal was not fame, but to spread awareness and raise funds for cancer research. After 143 days and two-thirds of the way across Canada, with the eyes of a country watching, Fox’s journey came to an abrupt end when newly discovered tumors took over his body
