Chemia

Directed by Paweł Łoziński

Pawel Lozinski follows the chemotherapy patients of a cancer ward over a year. The outside, where ‘normal’ life continues, trees bloom, shed their leaves or are covered with snow, does not exist except in a few glances out of the window or at some dim passing figures. The camera consistently focuses on dialogues and on the faces of those who find themselves between life and death and their closest relatives, capturing this suspended life with wonderful ease.
