In director Andrzej Munk's unfinished and incomplete documentary and Holocaust war drama, only about an hour long, using only still photographic images in the unshot scenes - assembled by the director's assistant Witold Lesiewicz. A former guard (Aleksandra Slaska) in the women's section of Auschwitz encounters a passenger on a cruise ship (Anna Ciepielewska) who was one of her prisoners. This sets off a series of flashbacks concerning those terrible days, and the struggle of wills that took place between prisoner and guard.
The film is presented at the festival without English subtitles.
