My Poor Head

After the death of his wife, the father of 16-year-old Wojtek, succumbs to a nervous breakdown and loses touch with reality. The school authorities where Wojtek is a student already know about this problem. If Wojtek’s father doesn’t prove he is able to look after his son, Wojtek will be taken to an orphanage. Wojtek is left with a few hours to master the situation and overcome the problem. The film is based on the short story 'ON' [He] by Joanna Łabuz and corresponds to the fourth Commandment: 'Honour your father and your mother'.
