Excellent work.  I find this song & video very haunting. The lyrics of the song cut right to the core, while the dialogue offers just enough hope to keep it from being oppressively disturbing (basically, just disturbing enough). I think translating the song into Polish works wonderfully - it gives it a sort of otherworldly-ness. Having the singer being the only person able to move freely emphasizes the chars predicament & works quite well. Haunting.

I must warn you, my dear, that I am susceptible to flattery.
