My Nikifor
(Mój Nikifor)The Polish spa of Krynica in 1960. Uninvited, Nikifor enters Marian Wlosinski’s studio and unceremoniously unpacks his painter’s tools of trade. He has come to stay and paint. Wlosinski’s life, quiet and carefully ordered to the minutest detail, is now disturbed. He tries hard to get rid of the persistent intruder. First he decides to find Nikifor’s family, only to discover that the folk painter is all - alone in this world. Under the care of casual strangers, reluctantly offering him a humble place to sleep in exchange for simple chores, he does not even have a birth certificate to his name. In the eyes of the law, there is no proof whatsoever of his existence. Wlosinski decides to sacrifice everything in order to take care of tubercular Nikifor until the day of the latter’s great triumph.
