„Underlife” is a film inspired by “Kołysanka” (“Lullaby”) directed by Krzysztof Komeda, which employs metaphor to show the destructive influence that ancestors have on man and poses a question if we are able to liberate from it. It raises the universal issue of subconscious determinants which condition and define our lives. A baby carriage, which is the symbol of the time and place of birth, constitutes the leading motif of the film. It is both the place where we appear after coming to the world and an object which reminds us of our roots after years. It determines the cyclical nature of existence and combines the past and the future.
