The late Andrzej Zulawski's final film, a literary adaptation suffused with his trademark freneticism, transforms Polish writer Witold Gombrowicz's novel of the same name into an ominous and manic exploration of desire. Witold who has just failed the bar, and his companion Fuchs, who has recently quit his fashion job, are staying at a guesthouse run by the intermittently paralytic Madame Woytis. Upon discovering a sparrow hanged in the woods near the house, Witold's reality mutates into a whirlwind of tension, histrionics, foreboding omens, and surrealistic logic as he becomes obsessed with Madame Woytis's daughter Lena, newly married to Lucien.

Cosmos is basically about nothing and you can walk away from it thinking that it gave you absolutely nothing. But you can still marvel at the individual images, the different scenes, the overall abstractness, and even the bizarreness of some of the scenes. I really liked the weirdness of the film. Andrzej Żuławski's fond farewell to the world of film and the world.
