Andy Gillet

A handsome heir to a fortune opens a cozy cake shop and hopes to attract women, but his new pâtissier is a man who has loved him from afar for years.

Andrzej Zulawski's final film, a literary adaptation suffused with his trademark freneticism, transforms Polish writer Witold Gombrowicz's novel into an ominous and manic exploration of desire. Witold, who has just failed the bar, stays at a guesthouse run by Madame Woytis, where reality mutates into a whirlwind of foreboding omens and surrealistic logic as he becomes obsessed with her daughter.
