KOLEKCJA – COLLECTION
Marcin Polar | Polen 2017 | 19 Min. | OmeU
In einem kleinen abgelegenen Dorf in der Region Podkarpacie lebt ein altes Ehepaar. Mieczysław kümmert sich hingebungsvoll um seine Frau Władysława, die auch bei den einfachsten Alltagstätigkeiten auf seine Hilfe angewiesen ist. Wenn seine Frau schläft, widmet sich Mieczysław seiner Leidenschaft – dem Sammeln alter und bei anderen längst in Ungnade gefallener Gegenstände. Fleckige Kerzenständer und verstaubte Butterdosen helfen ihm, die Vergangenheit vor dem Vergessen zu bewahren.
