National Film Archive Warsaw: A parable on the passage of time. Apathy and stagnation, symbolized by a cramped flat and its view onto the street, pass down the generations. The tenants of the flat are duplicated simultaneously on the street below, dancing to the unchanging rhythm of a tango. A grotesque vision of an absurd society. Oscar© winner in 1983
