Cicha Ziemia

Silent Land

Anna and Adam are a seemingly perfect, if somewhat uptight, Polish couple. In search of relaxation, the two have rented a vacation home on a sunny southern Italian island. Once there, however, they discover that the advertised pool is damaged and drained. When the hired pool worker has an accident in front of their eyes, they try to ignore the incident and continue their vacation as if nothing has happened. But despite all the distractions of diving and dining, the cracks of their ignorant attitude slowly but surely seep through from the unconscious, pushing them closer to the edge of the abyss. SILENT LAND is a disturbingly suspenseful drama about the power of repressed emotions. (Zurich Film Festival)
