ABOUT THE MOVIE
Through a series of seemingly simple, everyday scenes, the film "The Cure" directly and minimalistically depicts the period of several months in the life of Tamara, who suffers from oropharyngeal cancer. The gravity of the situation is further intensified by the fact that the person behind the camera is Tamara's daughter. The daughter is looking for the answer why her mother still smokes despite knowing she has cancer.
