Zegnam cie, mój swiecie wesoly
The title of the film refers to a traditional Polish mourning song, which in a new arrangement was included on the album "Rzeczy Mlodych", recorded by the band Polskie Znaki. This project was intended to remind us of folk music, which for centuries has tamed the topic of death, which is a taboo in today's culture. The story about the creation of this album becomes a poem about transience and the experience of loss. The heroes are those who help others pass away and grieve, and they are accompanied by elderly village singers, professional musicians and pop stars. Life added a surprising epilogue to this story.
