Wahadełko (pendulum) in medical jargon means epilepsy. Its attack can be evoked by holding an object in a pendulum movement in front of a sick person. The main protagonist of Filip Bajon’s film is a young man Michał, who spends most of his time in bed suffering from epilepsy, depression and other illnesses. Also he himself has his pendulum. What is it? It is one of the questions the director asks the viewer.
