Kler - nothing human is alien to me

Hi there!
Kler - a film title that probably everyone has heard of. A movie that in first weekend has been watched by almost 1 million people. Is beating every record when it comes to the number of video views. I want to the cinema to find out what is all about.
This movie is produced to present the inside of the church. Things that are happening of the daily basis in Curia, in a small parish located in countryside and a parish in a city. The story is about 3 main characters: Priest Listowski which works in a parish in a big city. He has a dream to be transfer to Vatican. The situation is impeded by Archbishop that wants to build the biggest sanctuary in Poland. Priest Trybus works in a small parish and is having human problems like women and alcohol. Priest Kukuła is really close to God, but after some incidents his faith is going through a difficult time.
This movie is really difficult to talk about. In my opinion it's impossible to tell if I enjoyed that film or not. The final scene is intensive and when movie finished everyone left a cinema in a silent.
I'm not sure it the movie is based on real story or it's just so fabricated. If it's true, I won't even think about that.
Everyone should watch it and just think. What can be done to change and improve this situation. It's really terrifying and I don't want to think about that.
Thanks

The Girl on the Train - a psychological thriller

Hi there!
The Girl on the Train - book that three years ago was at the top of every book ranking. Is't really that good and unusual, or it has a good marketing? I had to check if by myself.
A few weeks ago I had finally an opportunity to read this book. This story is about three different women: Rachel, Anna and Megan.
Rachel is a 32-year old woman that has a problem with an alcohol. She suffers from the divorce. She lost a job, and she constantly has blackouts caused by the excessive alcohol consumption. Every day she takes a train to London. During a trip she always looks through the window and observes surroundings. She focuses on one house where live a couple. She doesn't know them, but she is idealising their life. Rachel named them and created their story. She doesn't know the truth of Megan life and her terrible past.
Anna is a current wife of Rachel's ex-husband - Tom. There is a happiness in her marriage, and she is taking care of her daughter. She is having some problems with Rachel, because she is calling Tom and sometimes she visits them as well as observes their house.
One day everything changed. After a long night out full of alcohol and drugs, Rachel woke up and her body is covered in bruises and blood. She doesn't remember what happened last night, but after she read in a newspaper that Megan is missing, she knows that something bad happen.
Will she discover the truth? Will she stop drinking?
All of that and more you will find out after reading this book.
In my opinion it's worth reading this book. After all the love stories it's time for something else. It's a psychological thriller, full of twist and turns.
After reading it, I understand why it was on the bestseller list.

Another fabulous idea to spend time with family during summer holiday

Hi there!
I am trying not to look through the window, because the weather is not that great. It's raining and it's cold.  I wish I could go back to the warmer months.
In today post I want to present a fabulous place that I visited during summer  - Leonardia.
This place is located in Darłowo and is open from May to September.
Leonardia is a place for the rest and for the fun. It doesn't matter how old are you, because everyone is invited and everyone should find something for them. This place has a huge assortment of around 100 different games. Everything is made of wood, so this theme park is really eco-friendly. Also, all the attractions are hand made. There you can find games for one or few players. There are for everyone, because some of them are easy and others are quite difficult.
The only condition to spend a wonderful time there is a good weather, because everything is outside, so it can get a bit difficult when it's raining. Other than that I think this place is a wonderful attraction. Also, it's not really expensive. Tickets start from 14 zł.
I was there with my family, and we spend a wonderful time and made lots of memories.
Leonardia is a place to visit!
Thanks

The Fast and the Furious - good series to watch during colder months

Hi there!
Few months ago I decided to watch whole series called 'The Fast and the Furious' or colloquial 'Fast&Furious'. I really enjoyed this series and here are some words about it.
The first film was filmed in 2001 so almost 18 year ago. That's crazy how the time flies by. But back to the film. This series is based on action films that largely concerned with illegal street racing. Every episode represents different story that has something in common with the previous one. That's why I would recommend watching it in a chronological order.
There are a lot of cars and races. The main character Brian O'Conner played by Paul Walker is a very interesting person. Unfortunately this actor committed in 2013 a suicide which in my opinion is a huge loss. He was a wonderful actor that played not only in this series.
"Fast&Furious" is not the most amazing series that has ever been produced. There are a lot of people that think this is a really bad production. I can't agree with that, because while watching this I felt entertainment and I enjoyed it. Also, the music is really good and some songs are well-known to these days.
I would recommend you watch this series and find out for yourself if you like it or not.
Thanks
