DESCRIPTION

Jan, an avid angler comes regularly to fish in a charming village. There he meets Irena, the love of his life. But he’s too young, too immature, and he rejects a fragile, evolving relationship. Thirty years later, he returns to the city with fishing gear, but this is just an excuse to find Irena, whom he has been thinking about all his life. In the beautiful landscape of the Vistula and the picturesque town Barański invites you to reflect on the eternity of feelings, but also on the transience of nature.
