FILM "KUMOTRY" 2026 | documentary film Duration: 1 hr. 10 min. Age rating: 16+
A story of friendship between women living in a disappearing Polish village in the Romanian Carpathians. Hanka and Bronka have already buried their husbands, and their children have left for abroad in search of a better life.
Self-reliant and independent, the protagonists charm with their optimism and ability to remain strong, finding strength in friendship and humor. Will their world, built on memories and mutual support, withstand the test of time?
"Kumotry" is a nostalgic portrait of a vanishing world, radiating sincere, simple humor and captivating with visuals that convey the enchanting beauty of the Carpathian foothills.
The director creates a moving film about memory, friendship, and the fragility and transience of life. It is a sensitive portrait of two protagonists for whom they are everything to each other, encouraging one to re-evaluate priorities and look at reality from an unusual, less-visited perspective.
Director: Emilia Śniegoska Screenwriter: Emilia Śniegoska
