Synopsis
Andras (Zygmunt Malanowicz), an older man employed as a furniture designer, gets a life-jarring shock when he returns from a trip and finds that some of the work he developed has been given over to a younger employee. This instigates a mid-life crisis over his own identity and his sense of security and self-worth, all exacerbated by a recent divorce and estrangement from his son. Recognizing that he needs help, the man goes for therapy and starts to face his problems. Therapy counteracts some of the damage of living, and the man starts to consider his son, his relationships with women, and his father in a different light.

Mood and atmosphere
Immerse yourself in a poignant exploration of identity and self-discovery, where the weight of nostalgia collides with the stark reality of mid-life reflections. Set against the backdrop of a cozy, sunlit studio filled with the warmth of handcrafted furniture, the film evokes feelings of loneliness intertwined with hope. As the protagonist navigates the emotional labyrinth of his past—grappling with themes of family estrangement and the quest for meaning—each scene resonates with a beautiful melancholy. The gentle pacing invites introspection, while the aesthetic of subtle, warm colors enhances the intimate atmosphere, making it a perfect companion for quiet evenings of reflection or personal growth.
