MUM

POLISH TITLE: MAMO

A sensitive and naturalistic observation of a relationship between two women as their bond is put to the test by fading memory. The roles have been reversed - Barbara takes care of her 98-year-old mother, Leokadia. The notebook, in which Leokadia recorded important information and events, has disappeared, but Barbara knows that it was not just a notebook but her mother's memory. It comes back sometimes – in songs, French sentences, and poems. Everyday activities take on a new significance as time passes.
