KRZYK – LOSING CONTROL tells the story of a young woman’s life unraveling after a fatal crash reawakens her buried grief. Bacteriologist Lena drives past a burning car and hears the scream of a dying woman. She does not tell her boyfriend how much the incident disturbs her, just as she hasn’t spoken about her ongoing anguish. Instead, she throws herself into her work and begins to obsessively intrude into the life of the deceased, beginning an affair with the widower and gradually taking on the role of mother to his son. Her persistent insomnia causes her to lose the boundary between dreams and reality. Eventually, realizing she needs help, she accepts the guidance of a whisperer and begins to find her own way of coping with her loss.
Krzyk: Losing Control is set for release on November 21st.
