Communion (2016 film)

Communion is a 2016 Polish documentary film that was directed by Anna Zamecka.

Ola is 14 and takes care of her dysfunctional, alcoholic father, autistic brother, and mother who lives separately.

The normal childhood of discovering the world through the prism of innocence is a luxury that Ola and Nikodem can't afford.

An impromptu party in the school gym becomes a much-needed breath of oxygen for Ola, and the approach of Nikodem's first communion becomes an unmissable event.

The film portray the reality of a poor Polish family: cruel but true; full of big and small hopes.
