Plot Summary
Janusz Majewski adapts Prosper Mérimée’s 1835 tale of the same name, centering on a mysterious statue unearthed in a provincial town. The figure, sculpted as a tormented woman, becomes an ominous presence during a wedding celebration. When the groom impulsively slips his ring onto the statue’s finger—and cannot remove it—the joyous occasion descends into a nightmarish spiral of superstition, obsession, and the uncanny.
