The Balance Movie Review

The Balance focuses on a strong, compassionate wife and career woman in her early 30s, who puts marriage, work, and self on the line for reasons that are not entirely clear to her. Maja Komorowska's performance is magnetic and warm, completely involving us in her story. The score has all the force of any of the actors here, strengthening the impact of the simplest of sequences. AKA: The Quarterly Balance; Balans Kwartalny.
