A real-life case of police brutality, and its soul-destroying fallout, is dramatized in Polish director Jan P. Matuszyński's feature, competing in Venice.
From their first moments onscreen, it’s evident no good is going to come to teenagers Jurek and Grzegorz . Jan P. Matuszyński’s unsparingly bleak period feature — based on the real-life police beating, in Poland circa 1983, of high school student Grzegorz Przemyk — opens with a complex single shot that ominously captures the calm before the storm.
Grzegorz and Jurek wake up in the former’s bedroom, gray light streaming through the window, a pet turtle crawling across the floor, the friends’ idle chitchat mundane to a fault. Cinematographer Kacper Fertacz’s camera eventually becomes more mobile, moving with the boys as they walk back and forth through the bustling apartment of Grzegorz’s mother, Barbara , a poet and opposition activist whose hectic bohemian lifestyle often spills into her home.
