A Time for Witches

The story follows Jola, a twenty-year-old prostitute and drug addict, as she encounters Andrzej, a gay man at a railway station. Their relationship develops amidst the challenges of addiction and living with the HIV virus. As they seek to stay together, they find refuge in the Red Palace, a former recreation center for Party officials that now serves as a home for AIDS sufferers, managed by father Jan.

As tensions rise in the surrounding community, the narrative delves into the increasing aggression towards the residents of the Red Palace. The intertwining lives of Jola, Andrzej, and father Jan reflect the broader societal issues surrounding AIDS and the struggles faced by marginalized individuals. With a runtime of 110 minutes, the film provides a poignant look at love, resilience, and societal rejection during a difficult time.
