Structured in an interesting manner, author’s own version of a play by Marek Koterski written in 1989. The three of us, similarly to majority of his other films and plays, depicts fortunes of Adas Miauczynski – a manic-depressive intellectual, ever out of luck. This time the character is struggling with his relationship with Gosia (Katarzyna Figura) after intrusion of the third one – a TV-set constantly turned on. Adam is trying to defend his position and attract the woman’s attention but in confrontation with commercials or TV-series he is fighting a losing battle. TV interferes in their life in a brutal way – also literally when a girl from a commercial of hygienic pads, a surgeon wearing blood-stained gloves or a brain tumour woman step out of the screen. With dialogues from TV-series in the background, the couple have yet another conversation on their ever more mismatched dreams and expectations.
