Backwards

Poland 2022 | 102 minutes | Polish | Hebrew subtitles

1989. Marysia is a single mother to her son Darek, a closed-off child, whose peculiar behavior gets him kicked out of kindergarten. He is diagnosed as being on the spectrum, but his surroundings turn their back on him. Marysia, determined to help her son receive a loving and accepting education, reads every article and research published on the subject. Her determined and courageous battle with bureaucracy and human heartlessness led to significant changes in the Polish education system. With dramatic turns, and a humanistic and empathetic approach, Backwards plays on the mind and heart.
