The Wind. A Documentary Thriller (2019)

A documentary about a mysterious and destructive wind that blows in the Tatra Mountains and is said to make people go crazy. In the Podhale region in Poland, the Halny wind blows several times a year in spring and in autumn, in cycles. It is unpredictable, so you never know if—and when—it will metamorphose into a destructive storm, transforming the picturesque mountain chains into a décor dominated by the savage performance of nature. Coming from the highest of the Carpathian Mountains, it moreover seems to trigger, in addition to the dread it provokes among the population, heart attacks, acts of madness and violence, or other strange effects on the women or men most sensitive to its appearance. Built much like a thriller, The Wind. A Documentary Thriller develops a symphonic account, examining nature and the inhabitants to chart a mysterious phenomenon.
