The film is beautifully shot, and the cinematography is natural and serene. The director is very impressive with her film experience. The scenes are not arranged chronologically, as they are like a journey through the feelings and desires of a human being regardless of age.
An unquestionable value of the film is Warsaw and the Warsaw Uprising, which became the setting for the heroine's inner and spiritual journey. Frederic Chopin's heart, praying for the dead and giving someone’s life for his homeland become a motif that transforms her internally. The most important question of the story is whether it is possible to live after death. Is death the total devastation of everything we have?
We observe two stories, linked by the same theme of self-sacrifice. One story is about the grief of a wife, the other is about the grief of a boy after the death of his closest friend.
Not many words are said here, but the intensity of feelings engages the viewer every minute.
The music is beautiful.
I recommend it to anyone who loves deep stories in a minimalist style.
