synopsis–
Wieczność Dotąd Trwa (Eternity Continues) explores themes of cross-culturalism, cooking rituals, and the duality of Polish-American identity. Set in an ambiguous time frame, seventy-five-year-old Polish grandmother Jagoda leads her fifteen-year-old Polish-American granddaughter Maria through the process of cooking her legacy dish—pierogi. As they progress through their cooking journey, the elements of the kitchen bring them closer together, allowing them to better understand their places in each other's lives.
