Nearly 200,000 people had to leave their homes due to the fires raging in Los Angeles. Many of them have nothing to return to, because their homes are only ashes. The house of Polish film producer Anna Dobrowolska and her daughter Róża, interviewed by “Fakty” TVN reporter Marcin Wrona, burned down completely.
– The house burned down completely and it's just extraordinary. I can't believe it – said Anna Dobrowolska in an interview with Marcin Wrona. She admitted that she still couldn't look at what happened rationally. – I think it will all work out somehow. I'm just collecting various information at the moment. I'm starting to build everything again, she said.

Mrs. Anna and her daughter Róża were among the first people to evacuate. – The notifications went out at 11 a.m. and the house was gone by 3 p.m. We didn't know that, we thought we were just going out for a meeting – says Róża.
– I remember the structure of the house, not everything was wooden, so I thought that maybe at least Róża's room had been saved, but when we look at the materials now, I only realize what it means, what kind of element it is. I no longer have any doubts that there is nothing there, says Mrs. Anna.
