This Thursday, 27, February at 5:00 p.m., we invite you to a screening of the film CROSSROADS and a meeting with the director, hosted by Marta Chylińska and Mateusz Żebrowski.

About the film: The orderly life of Tadeusz, a retired hospital director, changes in the blink of an eye when a dramatic road accident occurs. Instead of a peaceful and well-planned "golden autumn of life", he is faced with a situation that overwhelms both him and those closest to him. A shadow falls on his marriage, relationship with his son and the upcoming wedding of his beloved granddaughter. In addition, a woman appears in Tadeusz's life, under whose influence he will start making surprising decisions. Day by day, the atmosphere begins to intensify, emotions take over, and the future is no longer as certain as it seemed.
