Mikołaj is taking his first steps toward adulthood, seeking his true self in a world that often seems indifferent or dismissive of his plight. Faced with rejection from his family, he struggles to find balance between his need for acceptance and his desire to live authentically.

With sensitivity and intensity, the film traces Mikołaj’s inner path and his struggle to bridge the gap between himself and his father. Will they find common ground, or will the challenges they face drive them further apart?

Filmed and recorded in July 2024, Queens of the Stone Age: Alive in the Catacombs captures QOTSA as you’ve never seen or heard them before. This utterly unique once in a lifetime experience features a carefully selected setlist spanning the QOTSA catalog, each song chosen and epically reimagined for the Catacombs. The result is an unprecedented incarnation of QOTSA at their most intimate, yet surrounded by literally millions of human remains — “the biggest audience we’ve ever played for,” says Joshua Homme. Every aesthetic decision, every choice of song, every configuration of instruments… absolutely everything was planned and played with deference to the Catacombs—from the acoustics and ambient sounds — dripping water, echoes and natural resonance — to the darkly atmospheric lighting tones that enhance the music.
