The Film All-Nighter

In a Polish folk tale, the spirit of a possessed girl has been trapped inside a stone for centuries. Now, however, it visits the director’s 102-year-old grandmother, sitting in her living room awaiting her passage to the next life. Between the two of them, trapped within their bodies, a tender dialogue unfolds about their memories, old age and death. Documentary, animated and scripted footage are woven together. Possession as a form of communication.
