SISTER OF MINE
POLISH TITLE: MOJA SIOSTRA
Zuzia, a very sensitive teenager with an artistic talent, is struggling with a drug addiction. Her brother, the film director, decides to take a closer look at the family to understand what might have caused the situation. Nevertheless, it is not a story about overcoming an addiction but about the enormous influence of relationships within a family on particular decisions of its members. The director focuses his camera lens on his loved ones in the most intimate moments and tries to capture hot spots, sources of conflict and the absence of mutual understanding.
