Couple in a room smoking cigarettes

Love has been depicted on screen thousands of times, in a myriad of ways, but cinematic love never quite captures the gritty reality of devoting yourself to one person for the entirety of your life. Whilst romance on the big screen means fireworks and dramatic gestures, in real-life, true love is more about finding that one person who completes you, that one person who shares your passion and puts up with your sh*t. It’s the kind of love depicted in Katarzyna Gondek’s experimental documentary Couple in a room smoking cigarettes.
