The Poles have made a conscious decision not to limit their exhibition to a computer show, but to enter into a dialogue with the visitors. Men and women in national costume ask the visitors about their opinion of Poland and their expectations for the country's future. Discussion forums with politicians, journalists and representatives from the economic sector are held in the "Polish club". Topics could include "Poland and the EU" or "Poland - a bridge between East and West".
Idea for children and teenagers: A primeval forest in Europe? Thrilling close footage of animals, for example a fight between two bisons, are shown in a film about the oldest primeval forest of Europe, the Bialowieza. Even the projection room gives you the feeling that you stand in the middle of a forest. In another wooden building a teenager in a film guides you through a real church carved in saline rock: It is 100 metres beneath the ground in the oldest saline mine of the world in Wielicka. The young visitors can collect "coins" with a game pad on spherical computer consoles.
