THE CAULIFLOWER OF DESTINY

KALAFIOR PRZEZNACZENIA

Fiction, 76′

Directed by: Anna Urbańczyk (directing debut)
Production: Poland, 2026

Stifled Ania, trapped in a grimy grocery store, is suffocating under her mother’s toxic control. Salvation arrives via a discarded cauliflower that, unsettlingly, starts talking. At first a witty mentor, the vegetable’s advice soon sours into a grotesque push for revenge. As her rebellion escalates from petty pranks to radical acts, Ania must decide: is this edible oracle her savior or a deranged voice of self destruction? A darkly comic journey where freedom tastes like rot.
