EXAM
POLISH TITLE: EGZAMIN
Gosia and Jurek-an eccentric children's theater actress and a workaholic veterinarian-are a loving,
sensitive couple in their thirties who have been doing therapy together for a year now. One day, they are invited to a special exam session, during which they are supposed to be a model couple for their
therapist’s professional exam. Two people, one therapist under scrutiny, an international commission,
an interpreter, and the hidden frustrations of the spouses. These will be the longest minutes of their
lives.
