Smaller Sky 1980

Synopsis

Artur, a 45-year-old scientist, leaves his family and his job. He has been living at the railway station for 9 days now. Although in the past Artur took care of the household budget and his own finances and never caused any hassle or got in anyone\'s way, paradoxically people around him think that he is the one who needs care and assistance. The former researcher at the institute of microbiology living in the station hotel and dining at the station bars, in need of some rest and solitude, seems a noteworthy object for both the psychiatrist, Dr. Barcz and Marek – a journalist whose career is fading and who hopes to return to the top owing to an article about Artur. Behavior beyond the accepted patterns meets with a defensive response from the society. Where, then, is a space for individuality?
