Brothers

A tender story about two brothers in their eighties, a dreaming artist and a pragmatic scientist who share the last stages of their lives in their native Poland. Together they survived Stalin’s gulags and together they got through the exile years in communist Russia. Opposed like day and night, they have been inseparable all their lives. Despite their old age, they share endearing moments outdoors. Full of jokes and energy, they enjoy arguing, fighting, and loving each other. Their relationship shows that reality can be transformed depending on how we look at it.
