THE CURE
POLISH TITLE: KURACJA
REPRESENTED BY KFF
Ciechocinek, a famous spa in Poland is visited each year by thousands of people. In a short period of time they want to be cured and feel better – both physically and emotionally. The characters of a film meet in one sanatorium – they get their medical treatment, but also enjoy their strolls in a summer sun, concerts and dancing parties. Three weeks spent together is not much, but may be enough to find happiness.
