Riassunto
Directed by Krzysztof Kieslowski in 1985, 'Bez konca' (English: 'Without End') is a Polish drama that explores themes of grief, loss, and survival amidst political turmoil. The film centers around Ulla, a translator whose life unravels after the sudden death of her husband Antek. As she struggles to cope with her grief, she becomes entwined in the plight of Darek, a jailed Solidarity activist. Kieslowski uses this personal narrative against the backdrop of Poland's martial law era, examining how individuals navigate their own emotional landscapes while surrounded by political chaos.
