A very quiet, beautiful, and heavy film. The artistic techniques are tremendously effective--the lighting, shadows, angles, and stillness. It is interesting to see the post-WWII landscape and society of Poland through the eyes of a young woman who has been sheltered away from the horrors of the war. Ida is a reminder of the importance of perspective and to get to know the world before you engage in or disengage from it.
