After his teenage son, Chris, is last seen by a surveillance camera on a bridge over Warsaw's turbulent Vistula River, Daniel embarks on an all-consuming search. Armed with self-built boats, drones, and underwater cameras, he relentlessly scours the river's depths. As months pass, while his own family struggles to live with the uncertainty of Chris's disappearance, Daniel begins helping other families with missing loved ones find answers -- and, at times, the closure that continues to elude him.

David Fear Rolling Stone Feb 5, 2026
Though he borrows the visual template of the true-crime doc, complete with several surreal Lynchian flourishes, Marczak never steers his film into exploitative waters. Go to Full Review Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com Feb 2, 2026
A moving story of how grief and love can harden into determination. Go to Full Review David Ehrlich IndieWire Jan 26, 2026
B+
An ultra-immersive portrait of grief, acceptance, and the role that hope can play in delaying them both, “Closure” soon eschews any familiar genre tropes in favor of following Daniel as he obsessively charts the shores of the Vistula in search of answers.

Marczak’s film becomes not just a document of a hunt but a psychological portrait of loss and a family’s attempts to come to terms with that. Go to Full Review Louisa Moore Screen Zealots Feb 9, 2026
A beautifully made documentary about the painful truth of what it means to keep searching when closure may never come. Go to Full Review Pat Mullen POV Magazine Feb 3, 2026
The striking cinematography captures the weight of grief the father carries, but there’s something respectful about the level of polish with which Closure presents its tale. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
