The Story of Sin (Polish: Dzieje grzechu) is a 1975 Polish drama film directed by Walerian Borowczyk. It was entered into the 1975 Cannes Film Festival.

Synopsis

D’après le roman de Stefan Żeromski, Histoire d’un Péché est le seul film de fiction polonais de Borowczyk. Grażyna Długołęcka, dont ce sont les débuts, joue le rôle de Ewa Pobratyńska, héroïne victime condamnée à l’avance dont la passion pour un étudiant en anthropologie l’emmène dans un voyage périlleux au travers d’une Europe du début du XXe siècle. Vision critique de l’hypocrisie de l’Eglise Catholique, Histoire d’un Péché compte comme le film le plus passionné de Borowczyk. Tourné presqu’entièrement à l’épaule par le maitre Zygmunt Samosiuk (qui fait une brève apparition avec Borowczyk en travesti), Histoire d’un Péché est accompagné magnifiquement par le concerto pour violon de Mendelssohn. Il a remporté un grand succès public et critique en Pologne et à l’étranger. Sélection Officielle au Festival de Cannes 1975.

A woman (played by Borowczyk's wife Ligia Branice) has a series of surreal, dream-like hallucinations and encounters within the confines of a lonely apartment building. Some of these bizarre occurrences include various abstract objects appearing in a room, two men engaging in fencing and martial arts, a man entering and leaving a room repeatedly, and a living wig destroying several items on a table. The film ends with the woman passionately kissing a male mannequin's face before it crumbles to pieces.
