Synopsis

The combustible chemistry between a Polish florist and a British tourist in this charming postcard of sapphic synchronicity.
Moviegoers are saying
This intimate Polish production has sparked passionate responses from cast and crew who describe it as a heartfelt 'poem to Warsaw' made with spontaneous energy, while general audiences find themselves divided between its authentic charm and slower pacing. The film appears to feature Charli XCX in an against-type role, with reviewers noting her natural performance as a non-smoking character named Bethany, though some viewers seem more interested in the celebrity gossip angle than the actual storytelling.

Charli xcx’s casting adds a metatextual richness to the movie and vice-versa, as the friction between her pop star persona and Bethany’s somnambulant everywoman deepens the sense of a woman divided between the superreal and the literal, the spectacular and the mundane.

The spoken narrative, with its spare, literary diction and vigorous precision, seems to add details and even scenes to the image-scape. The copious observations and reflections that the speaker relates expand the movie—a mere seventy-one minutes long—into a work of novelistic amplitude.
