The Cauliflower of Destiny

Ania works at the neighborhood greengrocer run by her overbearing mother. Timid and exhausted by her everyday life, she finds an unlikely “ally” in her struggle for autonomy: a discarded cauliflower which, to her shock, starts talking to her. “The Cauliflower of Destiny” is a darkly comic coming-of-age story that explores complicated family dynamics with humor, tension, and a touch of surrealism. It reveals how thin the boundary can be between freedom and self-destruction — and how absurd, yet dangerously persuasive, the voices we choose to listen to can sometimes be.
