Enen

Production and year: Poland, 2009 Director: Feliks Falk Screenplay: Feliks Falk Cast: Borys Szyc, Grzegorz Wolf, Magdalena Walach, Marian Opania Description: An interesting film featuring an original performance by Borys Szyc, who plays the role of a young psychiatrist, Konstanty Gnot. During the evacuation of a psychiatric hospital caused by the July 1997 flood in Wrocław, Dr. Gnot took an interest in one of his patients. It turns out that his records are missing, and no one knows when he was admitted, who he was before, or what treatment he received. It is as if the man never existed. It is difficult to learn anything from the patient himself, as he is very withdrawn and does not react to what is happening around him. This story intrigues the young doctor, who tries to unravel the case. It soon turns out that the patient had been transferred to a social services facility. Konstanty “kidnaps” the patient from there and takes him to his home. During this home therapy, NN gradually regains contact with his surroundings. The doctor’s actions are not approved of by the hospital chief and his wife. However, Dr. Grot does not give up; by digging deeper into the matter, he tracks down the doctor who admitted the patient to the hospital 20 years earlier. The truth is hard to uncover, as everyone in the know continues to try to cover up the matter. The film keeps you on the edge of your seat until the very end, because it’s really hard to figure out who the titular Enen is.
