Jacek Borcuch's All That I Love is definitely a fantastic little film: just bear in mind you've almost certainly seen a great deal of it before. The story of a teenager growing up in 1980s Poland, set against the ongoing struggle between the emerging workers' movement and the government it lifts from practically every coming of age narrative going. There's the plot thread where the protagonist discovers girls (and by extension sex) are confusing, that his parents are surprisingly complicated human beings, that the future's an unknown and frightening quantity and more besides... but it excels in so many areas, from Borcuch's direction to the terrific performances to Daniel Bloom's achingly gorgeous score that it never, ever seems like a cliché.
