Ceremoniál

A studio scene of the 3rd grade at the Film and Television Faculty of the Academy of Performing Arts. Family consisting of a mother, a paralyzed father on a wheelchair and an adult daughter, are visiting relatives - a married couple with an adolescent son. The hostess is affected and cloyingly warm. She constantly jabbers, offers refreshments and is honey-tongued to her husband, who apparently suffered a stroke. She puts the flowers brought by the guests into the vase on a tablet close to the man. They drink coffee and the youngsters are bored. The old man stretches his hand to reach the flower. But his hands do not obey him and the vase tips over. The kind hostess immediately turns into an unpleasant virago who sharply scolds her sick husband. (oficjalny tekst dystrybutora)
