A Few Stories from Iceland is not only a story about Poles and Icelanders. It is a story about performing and enacting national identities. What does it mean to be Polish? What does it mean to be Icelandic? And in general: what does it mean to be a person of a given nationality? Where does symbolism or fantasy end and where does it begin?
