Cud purymowy

2000 · 57 min

A wry, uncomfortable chamber piece that watches prejudice curdle into self-interest, mixing dry satire with a quiet sense of moral unease.

Overview: A family of anti-Semites lives in Lodz. The husband is unemployed and poor. He believes that only true Poles can improve the situation in the country. His quiet wife believes what her husband does and says, while their son - the future of the nation - hates people who are different from himself. One day, the husband learns that his parents were Jewish. What's more, a distant relative from the US left behind a fortune to inherit. In order to get the money, the hero and his family must return to their roots. Their world is turned on its head...
