An astonishingly provocative and haunting tale of two young women who take inordinate risks in Warsaw’s ruthless urbanity to unhinge the course of a bleak, rural future. Ania and Gosia live with their families at the mercy of poverty in former PGR areas in rural Poland. These former labor camps, which had housed farmers during the glory days of communist rule, are now landscapes that testify to state neglect and material human suffering. Both girls join millions of others who migrate to Warsaw in search of employment. But the vexed journeys are full of twists, turns, and the gendered consequences of powerlessness. Constructed with a kind of filmmaking that defies conventions, the documentary miraculously strains the boundaries between fiction and fact, empathy and invasion, drama and life.  SW
