OH, GOD!
POLISH TITLE: O JEZU!
The reality presented in the film "Oh God" might be described using such terms as inertia or chaos. The characters feature lack of willingness to take any action,they are passive and indifferent, unable to create their own reality. The author presents a world that loses its original shapes, loses its identity. Groaning “oh God” as a main theme combines it all: grimace, sigh and a quiet whisper of despair over our own impotence.
