NAJLEPSZATHE BEST
- Logline
- Former Olympian Karolina Szczepaniak sets out to become the first woman to swim 172 kilometers across the Baltic Sea, after years of anorexia, burnout, and depression. Filmed with intimacy, documentary follows months of preparation, her relationship with partner Paulina, and the strain of endurance. Beneath the surface, it reveals how the drive for perfection can empower and destroy, intertwined with the force of queer love—a space where control and care blur, and freedom is found in letting go.
