Acting, storytelling, plot and character development are top notch. If you're looking for a quick watch check out this thirty minute gem. It's an original and well structured story that will make you happy and sad in a short amount of time.

An acceptable idea and storytelling.

I was with the main character of the story until the final moments. I was saddened by the tensions in the lives of these types of people, and an unfortunate truth was revealed to me.

A strong performance by an extraordinary actress about the ordinary life of one little person. So well played by Anna Dieduszycka. The story is a real one for so many, tall or short. 10 stars to the writer, Tadeusz Lysiak and 10 stars to all actors in this film.

"The Dress" may be only 30 minutes, yet it pack more heart and punch in that time than most full length films. Julia, a virgin dwarf who works in a Polish road side truck stops, is lonely until a 'normal' trucker, Bogdan, strikes up a conversation with her that seems to be more than the usual put downs she has to deal with. The rest must be seen to appreciate the films depth. It's just great.

The Dress is a short film in which Julka, a hotel maid with dwarfism, longs for romance, or at least a sexual experience. Julka has dealt with cruelty from strangers, and can be a little defensive about her size, but is capable of friendliness and soon attracts the interest of a truck-driving hotel guest. Things don't go as well as we hoped (actually, pretty awfully), and it would be interesting to know how this affects Julka, but unfortunately the filmmakers already used up the entire running time of the film with things that aren't very interesting.
