When watching "Rysa" (Blemish), I was truly intrigued. How can an event from the past that we would like to forget influence our lives? That topic is truly universal. The story is about Joanna (Jadwiga Jankowska-Cieslak) and Jan (Krzysztof Stroinski), who are a loving couple in their 50s. When Joanna is told by a stranger that her husband used to be a secret informer during the communist times, their marriage starts falling apart. "Blemish" has its own artistic style, with Cracow and all the interiors of apartments looking somewhat shabby. I think that the acting by both leading actors was very good. But after a while I started to have doubts about what the director Michal Rosa had in mind. Joanna's character was exceptionally uncompromising and unsympathetic to me, and I began to doubt the credibility of this type of character. However, if the director considered Joanna's uncompromising nature to be a moral virtue, the whole story fell short of being convincing.
