An entertaining and easy to watch light comedy showing the family life and many quirks of living in the late communist Poland. It's relies heavily on nostalgia as a "slice of life" film, but thankfully it's well observed and has definitely got the late 80s feel right. The cast is really good too, with solid performances from both Kinga Preis and Adam Woronowicz, an entertaining turn from Ewa Wiśniewska as the grandma and two kids who are both fantastic. Lots to like here and so many small relatable things that will ring true to many kids who grew up in this era.
