Malgorzata shows a mushroom she has found. The farmstead in Hrebeniv. “There used to be a house with an open veranda there, and that one over there is the neighbour’s—actually, the one next door. We lived there for a bit, then here, and then we moved further down. Over there, the mountain used to be completely black, but now there are just speckles on it, like chocolate drops. The spruce is dying. There used to be raspberries straight away. You’d literally step out of the house, cross over to the forest, and there was already something there. But now there’s nothing there.” Commentary by Malgorzata Rushel. Grandfather Mechislav reads a newspaper in the yard. A woman with chickens by the haystack. Malgorzata on the steps showing a mushroom. A man behind the fence. Malgorzata hides a jar in the cellar. Malgorzata in the yard next to a car. Stanislav by the washbasin. A man looks out from the terrace. Grandfather washes his hands. Stanislav films the cameraman on the terrace, presumably with a ‘Neva-2’ camera. Malgorzata plays with Krzysztof in the yard. Grandfather brushes his teeth with a glass of water. A cat, Malgorzata and grandfather. Mountain slopes in the mist. Malgorzata is asleep in the room; her grandfather is sitting beside her. The family on their way to the country house. A little girl by the river. A dog near the houses. Grandfather and a man walk around a puddle on a country road. Krzysztof and Malgorzata wade through the river. On the riverbank, grandfather speaks to the camera. - Tags:
