Szpital Przemienienia

a film by Edward Zebrowski

Hospital of the Transfiguration, based on the novel of the same name by Stanisław Lem, opens the cycle Cine Polska: Universo Lem (“Polish cinema: The Lem Universe”) organised by Instituto Polaco de Cultura and Filmoteca Canaria.

I did not read the book, so the film came as a bit of a shock. Science fiction it ain’t. The movie is powerful and brutal. Be warned.
