Directors Statement
"Burial" means a lot to me because I want to tell about the topic which really concerns me. Film's plot is settled in my country, Poland, which nowadays, after the promulgation of the ban on abortion - is full of loud and extreme discussion. The plot is about two people who are suspected of committing a crime. What they do is just caring about what is most important to them.
On one hand, I want to talk about the problem of abortion and how it is perceived in today's Poland. On the other, I want to highlight the fact that people want to share their love to animals, but often they do the opposite to people who are important to them. Film’s final scene brings us inside the mystery of those issues.
