Floating Skyscrapers

Floating Skyscrapers

(Płynące wieżowce)

Kuba is a sexually confused, champion swimmer in a committed relationship with his doting girlfriend Sylwia (Marta Nieradkiewicz). When he begins having a passionate affair with a naive, younger male athlete Michal (Bartosz Gelner), his world begins to unravel. As the two men spend more time together, they fall deeper in love, but Sylwia won’t let Kuba go without a fight. By trying to hold on to two loves at the same time, Kuba ensures a tragic ending for everyone involved.
Floating Skyscrapers is a film about the human condition; about love, or the lack of it, and about the consequences of seeking out its substitutes; about wasted opportunities and lost dreams - about the contemporary world and its pitfalls.
