Bittersweet

Michał Wawrzecki
Gorzko!
Poland 2014 / 19’

The last guests disappear out the door as the final wishes for the young bride and groom resound, masks are slowly taken off and the fascination with costume fades. This is how their wedding night begins… a night in a hotel, a night on the street, a night in the backseat of a convertible, in a bakery, and a restaurant, a night with a shotgun that must be fired. One couple, one night, and two attacks – this is a turning point after which nothing will be the same.
