Wretchedness by Andrzej Tichý
A classically trained musician is confronted by a desperate addict by a canal, unleashing a spiraling, polyphonic rush of memories from a youth spent among migrants, dealers, and the homeless. Colliding voices and timelines explore complicity, class mobility, and survivor’s guilt while tracing the relentless pull of poverty, racism, and addiction. The result is a propulsive, collage-like portrait of urban precarity where art, violence, and memory bleed into one another and escape remains tenuous.
