MY FLESH MY BLOOD [MOJA KREW]<br />
WEDNESDAY 6 OCTOBER AT 6:45PM<br />
Igor is a professional boxer whose life revolves around fighting<br />
and winning. His dreams are crushed when he is told that<br />
the boxing has left him brain damaged and without much<br />
longer to live. Fighting, though, is all he knows and loves and<br />
Igor refuses surgery, deciding to accept his fate. Instead he<br />
becomes obsessed with his legacy and determined to leave<br />
a child in the world before he dies. He soon meets Yen Ha, a<br />
young Vietnamese illegal worker who agrees to have his baby in<br />
exchange for Polish citizenship. Just like Igor, Yen Ha is lonely<br />
and in desperate search for a second chance in life: it is the start<br />
of an intense, emotional relationship between the two, who learn<br />
to overcome their anger and fear of the unknown and to love and<br />
appreciate each other for who they really are.<br />
Written and directed by Marcin Wrona, the story comes to life<br />
thanks to intense performances by Eryk Lubos, who powerfully<br />
portrays Igor in his desperation, anger, and disillusionment with<br />
life, and Luu De Ly, whose interpretation of Yen Ha’s fragility<br />
stands in contrast to the crude and harsh world surrounding her.<br />
My Flesh My Blood is a powerful film about clashing cultures,<br />
finding love and facing death. MP<br />
