Description:

"Nobody really believes in fortune-telling and prophecies - and neither does Michał Roman. One day a Gypsy woman foretells him a highly improbable future. After his family finally have gone away for the weekend, he quietly settles down to correct an article he has been working on. He does not believe a word of the prophecy to come true, but strangely enough, the first two parts of the prophecy come true. He now begins to worry because the Gypsy told him that on that very night he would kill a dark-haired man who would come to his house at evening time." Filmowy Serwis Prasowy, July 1976

Director(-s): Stanisław Bareja

Born in 1929 in Warsaw, died in 1987. Director of many comedies and thrillers extremely popular in Poland. Studied film directing at Łódź Film School. For seven years worked as an assistant director at Łódź Film Studio. In 1960 he made his first feature film "Husband of His Wife."

The Blue Kite

The Blue Kite

Lan feng zheng

dir. Tian Zhuangzhuang

, 1993 - 138

Tian Zhuangzhuang's "The Blue Kite" is his ambitious and serious-minded film since "Horse Thief" (Daoma Zai) - and certainly the best. It spans the first 18 years of communist rule, but centers on the life of a woman, primary-school teacher who loses one husband after another to the political vicissitude of the times. Tian recreates the texture and details of life in the 1950's and 1960's with great precision and raw, piercingly naturalistic performances from his cast. The recent return to a political climate of reformism ought to mean that it passes intact.

Miasto prywatne

dir. Jacek Skalski

Poland, 1994 - 73

A small town. One of many situated not far from the capital. In this town - a yard; rather ugly, like many other similar ones. And then the yard's inhabitants - several kids, some young women. The same bunch several years later. Now they're obviously a youth gang with a precise hierarchy of leadership. Brutal assaults, robberies - the idea of having an easy life. In the next scene, the teenage gang is already the local mafia. Crime combined with serious business, very big money, politics...
