A music instructor and a fledgling singer meet in post-War Poland, and continue following each other, impossibly, from country to country to country. By the director of Ida, the strongest component here is the same that made the Oscar-winning Ida memorable: the deep, stark black-and-white photography (not even cinematography; the still images here are photography). And while the story has merits on its own, it would be difficult for me to grant a high score to a movie exactly for the same reason a filmmaker (in my worldview) scored on his prior endeavor. Hence ... the SoSo.
