The simple story about love
On a train to Hel, two screenwriters tell us a story about a man and a woman. Right in front of the audience, they try to create a plot of a screenplay – a simple story about love. And so we have a woman (Marta), a man (Aleks) and the record of how they met on the first day of holidays in a train from Łódź Kaliska to Hel. Aleks and Marta begin to talk. At first about nothing because their chat stays on a surface, easily jumps from topic to topic and seems to be painfully trivial. As the time passes, it turns into something more. Suddenly, director’s exclamation (Patryk) interferes with the intimacy of this meeting and the growing feeling. We are on a film set.
