We could use this northern wind to bring us back this normality to Poland again. ;>

What I liked most about this movie is that it didn't beat the viewer over the head with its message. In her struggle to try to win over the hearts and minds of the town's people the main character maintained a degree of grace and patience. The movie was made twenty years before this review but I suspect that the struggle against those that wish to tell us how to live our lives and what is moral has always been going on. The struggle isn't only with other people, it is about the expectations that we put on ourselves. I especially liked the scene toward the end of the movie where the lead broke free of an unspoken shackle that had been placed upon her life (as Woody Allen once said, "tradition is the illusion of permanence"). follow me at https://IHATEBadMovies.com or facebook IHATEBadMovies
