Directed by Lech Majewski
Cast: Michael Tatarek, Elzbieta Okupska, Karolina Korta
Original Language: Polish, Italian
Father ploughs a supermarket with oxen, the plough ripping up tiles.
A girl in a bikini tempts the hero on the snowy slopes of the Matterhorn.
A forest full of the dead and Niagara falling onto a cathedral altar.
These are the visions of Adam, a poet who has lost his beloved one in a car
crash. A national tragedy imposes on a personal one. It is 2010, a Biblical year
for Poland with floods, fires, landslides and the catastrophe of the presidential
plane being torn apart in mysterious circumstances along with the nation's
elite, 96 people on board.
Adam gives up his job as a professor of literature to work at a supermarket
checkout. Yet all he wants is to sleep, escaping from his painful reality. For
him the only text to read in these hard times is Divine Comedy. And it is
Dante's masterpiece that brings back some meaning to Adam's life...
