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."

Arizona Dream

Arizona Dream

Arizona Dream

dir. Emir Kusturica

Arizona - a country of imagination, where people are lost in their dreams. Leo Sweetie, owner of a car showroom, dreams of a tower of Cadillacs high enough to reach the moon. Elaine, about to turn forty, sexy and childish at times, dreams of flying. Her stepdaughter Grace would like to be born again as a turtle. Axel, ever since he came to Arizona, sinks deeper and deeper into dreams, torn between two women struggling for his love...

Foul Play

Foul Play

Przepraszam, czy tu biją?

dir. Marek Piwowski

Poland, 1976 - 80

"This is a story about cops and robbers, based entirely on existing court documents. While making it I applied a different strategy than in "The Cruise." My actors do not have the natural instinct for comedy. They are too straightforward. A small story, written to entertain, gradually becomes really serious. I had to employ non-actors in this film because the youngest professional actors in Poland are over twenty and I needed teenagers. In my, opinion they are doing a great job." Marek Piwowski

Dzięcioł

dir. Jerzy Gruza

Poland, 1970 - 97

Stefan Waldek - a fourty-year-old sociologist - works in a large supermarket. Sitting all alone in a room equipped with TV screens, he observes customers' behaviour and, from time to time, advertises new products. Stefan is totally dominated by his aggressive and emancipated wife - Miśka, a highly successful athlete. Sport is her only passion. Unfortunately for her, their ten-year-old son Pawełek does not share her interests. He has a different hobby: embroidery. Stefan understands him very well though becuase he himself was keen on embroidering when he was a child. When his wife is away, Stefan follows his friend's advice and tastes a little of bachelor's life again...

Faraway, So Close!

Faraway, So Close!

In weiter Ferne, so nah!

dir. Wim Wenders

Germany, 1993 - 165

The films tells the story of Cassiel, "the angel of tears." As Raphaela, his companion, Cassiel is one of the guardian angels who look over Berlin, the reunified city. They are invisible, gentle and loving, but of course powerless: They cannot interfere with people's lives, they can only talk to their hearts. But one day, out of the blue, Cassiel gives up his eternity and becomes a man in order to save the life of a little girl.
