Deutsch Traurigkeit und Hilflosigkeit unter der Maske einer Teenager-Rebellion. Der Stoff ist ein Standarddrama "aus dem Leben“, die Verarbeitung ist aber durchdacht, stark und nimmt die Zuschauer*innen gefangen. Schlagkräftige Dialoge, die ausgezeichnete Darstellerin der Hauptrolle Zofia Stafiej. Sie ist der Geschichte ergeben, zögert kein einziges Mal in der anspruchsvollen Rolle. Das Drehbuch verliert sich nicht nur in der düsteren Situation, wie es viele Autoren machen würden. Die Hauptheldin wird Schritt für Schritt, Figur für Figur, Ort für Ort in der vergeblichen Bestrebung geführt, die Welt zu entdecken, in der ihr vor kurzem verstorbener Vater lebte, welcher ihr aber fremd geworden ist. Ein formaler Weg in das fremde Land für seinen Leichnam wird zu einem grundlegenden Ereignis in ihrem Erwachsenwerden. Sie werden es mir ihr erleben. [3Kino Fest] ()

Englisch I thought this was going to be another typical coming-of-age story of a teenage girl who’s searching. Searching for her place in life, a purpose, a way to escape a consumerist society, freedom – searching and searching and searching while making everyone's life a living hell. The Polish filmmakers, however, came up with a different story. The main character was indeed searching (somewhat belatedly) for a way to her father. She was a bit selfish, didn’t give a crap about the environment, and had trouble saying please or thank you at least occasionally, but I found her very relatable, much to my own surprise. In the end, it turned out to be a very different film from what I was expecting. While it wasn't exactly an action-packed film full of suspense, I oddly couldn't tear myself away from it. Polish cinema deserves praise yet again. I really liked Zofia Stafiej in her debut. This being her first role, it sure was a tough job. / Lesson learned: If you're going to transport a body, do it only in powder form. ()
