A MANGLE PRESS

POLISH TITLE: MAGIEL

REPRESENTED BY KFF

A story of dying small businesses in Poland and the end of a certain era, the film includes the nostalgic memories of a mangle press owner. Something that once seemed to have been sustainable and ever‑lasting turns out to be useless in the new society. It is a private, unassuming story of a place that no one will need in a moment. The generation born after 1990 probably has no idea what starch is.
