Without Anesthesia

Overview

A renowned Polish journalist challenges the status quo during a televised conference, showcasing his political acumen and insight. However, while he’s on air, his adversaries strip him of his privileges, leaving him feeling unwanted. This public humiliation mirrors his crumbling private life; his wife is having an affair with a younger man and seeks a divorce after 15 years of marriage, leaving him bewildered and without closure. As he spirals into heavy drinking with students who are disappointed by the cancellation of his seminar, the once-charismatic journalist finds himself increasingly isolated and voiceless.
