DESCRIPTION

The coronavirus pandemic has forced changes in our daily lives, personal as well as professional. Piotr Wereśniak with a small crew made an intimate, low-budget film about the clash of past and present, expectations and realization. Two married couples, college friends, meet after fifteen years to spend a weekend together at a summer cottage by the pond. Unsurprisingly for them, there is more that divides them than unites them. The old friends represent different world views, social, religious and civilizational attitudes of the modern world. The culture war going on in the world today has also reached them. Just when there finally seems to be a chance for common language across the divide, something happens that further exacerbates the conflict.
