POLISH TITLE: ULEGŁOŚĆ

REPRESENTED BY KFF

Piotr catches the biggest and most disgusting fish in a fishing competition. His life immediately starts to change for the better, and he begins to see a salutary amulet in the fish that he caught. Unfortunately, the fish also brings apocalyptic destruction to the world. Piotr will have to choose between his own best interest and that of his entire island community. A story of an angler who faces the end of the world. An apocalyptic story about the bond between Nature and Man and about how easy it is to destroy the delicate balance between these forces. Intriguing and discomforting, the film is part of the discussion about ecology, not without humour.
