In small-town Poland in the late 1950s, an aging woman married to a workaholic small town doctor meets a young man who makes her feel young again. But their innocent meetings at the river, marked by mutual fascination, are put to an end by a sudden and cruel twist of fate.
In this adaptation of Jarosław Iwaszkiewicz’s novel, Polish master Andrzej Wajda unexpectedly collaborated with actress Krystyna Janda, who within the fiction opens up about her real-life husband’s death. From this bewildering film-within-a-film pattern emerges an unforgettable cinematic experience.
