14TH KINOTEKA POLISH FILM FESTIVAL ANNOUNCES FULL PROGRAMME INCLUDING TRIBUTE to the LATE VISIONARY GENIUS, ANDRZEJ ŻUŁAWSKI 7 – 28 April 2016 Press release: 2 March 2016 14TH KINOTEKA POLISH FILM FESTIVAL ANNOUNCES FULL PROGRAMME INCLUDING TRIBUTE TO THE LATE VISIONARY GENIUS, ANDRZEJ ŻUŁAWSKI 7 – 28 April 2016 The 14th KINOTEKA Polish Film Festival returns to the capital this April with an exciting programme bringing together a diverse and enticing mix of film, music, visual arts and design with screenings, both contemporary and retrospective, as well as documentary and silent cinema, interactive workshops, industry masterclasses, exhibitions, live performances and special guests. KINOTEKA’s latest edition offers audiences at venues across London an opportunity to experience the very best of Polish film culture from the last 12 months. KINOTEKA is presented by the Polish Cultural Institute in London in partnership with Pola Arts Foundation and MyPolishTV, and co-financed by the Polish Film Institute. This year KINOTEKA has teamed up with several outstanding brands including Stock Spirits International and Meliá White House Hotel as well as Enterprise FS, The Polish Bakery, and Sami Swoi Money Transfer. Venues confirmed to participate in the 14th KINOTEKA programme include the BFI Southbank, ICA, Regent Street Cinema, Barbican Cinema, Close-Up Cinema, and London Film Academy. Running from the 7th to 28th April. As previously announced, KINOTEKA is excited to present three curated retrospectives that celebrate the lives and work of three of Poland’s most revered directors: Jerzy Skolimowski, Agnieszka Holland and Andrzej Żuławski, each of whom has had a huge creative impact internationally, finding critical acclaim and success both at home and abroad. This year’s KINOTEKA programme pays tribute to the genius of the late Andrzej Żuławski, who sadly passed away on the 17th of February. In his essay, introducing the Żuławski season at KINOTEKA Festival, writer and filmmaker Daniel Bird describes the director’s final film Cosmos (screening 15th April, ICA) as, “An exhilarating jungle gym for the heart and brain, the perfect coda to Andrzej Żuławski's filmmaking career”. He goes on to say “Żuławski may have just thirteen films in his career, but every one, including his last, is stuffed with a lifetime worth of thoughts and, above all else, feelings.” We ask you to join us as we look back on the life and legacy of this extraordinary filmmaker at the 14th KINOTEKA Polish Film Festival. Jerzy Skolimowski Jerzy Skolimowski, one of Polish cinema’s most iconic figures who has worked in film as a director, writer and actor for over 50 years, presents his latest film 11 Minutes, at KINOTEKA’s Opening Night Gala (7th April, Barbican Cinema). Throughout his illustrious career Skolimowski has always been one to push boundaries, so hold on tight for this bold and innovative ride that takes viewers on a pulse- pounding cinematic journey. Focusing on 11 scintillating minutes in the lives of a variety of characters whose paths cross as they race towards an unexpected finale, 11 Minutes is an adventurous rollercoaster full of motion, emotion and suspense. Featuring an impressive ensemble cast, 11 Minutes succeeds in being an inventive metaphor for our modern hectic lives driven by blind chance. KINOTEKA is delighted that Jerzy Skolimowski will present his film in person, followed by an onstage Q&A at the Barbican. In honour of his latest film Barbican Cinema and Close-Up Cinema present a special KINOTEKA retrospective from his impressive filmography; Jerzy Skolimowski: 11 Minutes and 55 years, with rarely screened titles including the psychological drama Barrier (1966) (9th April, Barbican) with an introduction by Skolimowski himself, Deep End (1970) (10th April, Barbican, 30th April, Close-Up Cinema) Skolimowski’s comedy-drama about an obsession with a woman, and the rarely screened Moonlighting (1982) (13th April, Barbican), starring Jeremy Irons, which was awarded the Golden Palm for Best Screenplay at the Cannes Film Festival. Producer Jeremy Thomas will take part in a Q&A about working with Skolimowski, following the screening of metaphysical horror, The Shout (1978) (14th April, Barbican), which was awarded the Special Jury Prize at Cannes. The season also includes his loose Andrzej Leszczyc trilogy; Identification Marks: None (1965) (22nd April), Walkover (1965) (23rd April) and Hands Up! (1981) (24th April) all screening at Close-Up Cinema as part of their ‘Close- Up on Masters of Polish Cinema’ season. Agnieszka Holland Currently Chairwoman of the European Film Academy, Agnieszka Holland was a former assistant to Andrzej Wajda and Krzysztof Zanussi, she has gone on to become one of Poland’s most eminent filmmakers, and the most commercially successful Polish-born director since Roman Polański. Throughout her long and celebrated career, three times Oscar® nominated Holland, has forged a creative path while avoiding categorisation, maintaining her integrity with films that are personal, entertaining and politically charged. Producing award-winning feature films including the Golden Globe-winning Europa Europa and Oscar-nominated In Darkness, Holland has also shown that she is just as comfortable and adept at working in television, directing episodes for US networks including HBO and Netflix, on groundbreaking shows ‘The Wire’, ‘Treme’, ‘The Killing’ and ‘House of Cards’. It is hard to think of another director with such a wealth of experience across different media, nations and cultures. BFI Southbank and KINOTEKA present a retrospective season of Holland’s essential films and television work Lighting Fires: The Film & TV of Agnieszka Holland. Key titles being screened during the season include; Cannes Critics Prize winner, Provincial Actors (1979) (11th and 15th April), the once banned by Polish censorship, A Woman Alone (1981) (13th and 18th April, with an introduction by Holland on the 13th), Europa Europa (1990) (13th and 17th April, with an introduction by Holland on the 13th), her first English language and much beloved family film, The Secret Garden (1993) (16th April), and In Darkness (2011) (14th and 19th April). The season will also include rare screenings of some of her television work – on the same night as an In Conversation event, audiences will be able to see her pilot for Treme (HBO, 2010) (12th April), based in New Orleans three months after the devastation of Hurricane Katrina. There will also be a complete screening of the mini-series Burning Bush (HBO Europe, 2013) (16th April). Based on real events, Burning Bush presents an absorbing, intelligent drama focusing on the aftermath of a protest by Prague student, Jan Palach, and his symbolic self-immolation at the close of the Prague Spring in 1969, protesting against the Soviet occupation of Czechoslovakia. From 1 – 30 April there will also be a display of international posters for films by Holland in the BFI Southbank Atrium. The Faces of Agnieszka Holland, will feature posters taken from the Archives of the Film Museum in Łódz which display varied graphic styles, the diverse priorities of different cultures and the compelling nature of poster art. Andrzej Żuławski Regarded as one of Polish cinema’s most original and controversial figures Andrzej Żuławski made his career making films outside of Poland. In honour of the late filmmaker KINOTEKA and the ICA will screen a retrospective tribute, Andrzej Żuławski: The Man, The Myth, The Films, including the UK premiere of his award-winning last film Cosmos (15th April, followed by a panel discussion). Awarded the Best Direction prize at the 2015 Locarno Film Festival, Żuławski’s first film in 15 years, is a metaphysical thriller and loose adaptation of Witold Gombrowicz’s surreal novel Cosmos. Hilarious, confounding and downright strange (in a good way), Żuławski fans will not be disappointed as the visionary director spins a mysterious web of erotic and psychological intrigue, bringing to mind both his earlier work as well as David Lynch’s Inland Empire which similarly defies any simple explanation. The curated programme also includes a newly digital re-mastered copy of Żuławski’s Polish production, The Devil (1972) (17th April, with introduction by Daniel Bird), a film withheld by Polish communist government censorship for 16 years. That Most Important Thing: Love (1975) (16th April), stars Romy Schneider as a struggling actress forced to act in erotic films, and cult body horror Possession (1981) (19th April) starring Sam Neill and Isabelle Adjani, whose unquestionably brilliant performance as the emotionally disturbed Anna won her both Best Actress at Cannes and a Cesar award. Often compared to David Cronenberg’s The Brood (1979), and as a precursor to Lars Von Trier’s Antichrist (2009), Possession also belongs to a much broader tradition of the fantastic in Eastern European culture, populated by golems, dybbuks and metamorphoses; as seen in Marcin Wrona’s startling final film Demon, who’s newly married protagonist literally confronts the skeleton in the family closet (also screening as part of KINOTEKA). Commemorating the great cinematography of Andrzej Żuławski, Andy Votel (Founder of Finders Keepers Records) will perform a special music tribute to Żuławski and his exceptional use of film music ranging from electronic through orchestral to experimental, including scores from Possession and Third Part of the Night at Rich Mix (22 March, 9.30pm). New Polish Cinema The Regent Street Cinema plays host to KINOTEKA’s New Polish Cinema strand with a selection of both popular and critically successful contemporary Polish films from the last year. One of Poland’s most popular directors, Jacek Bromski returns to the festival with his Gdynia-winning Anatomy of Evil (8th April), an engaging thriller about an aging mafia hit-man released from prison on parole who is assigned a mysterious assassination, but whom is physically unable to complete the task without help. With the mission in jeopardy a sniper is engaged to take over the task. In Dariusz Gajewski’s heart-stirring family drama Strange Heaven (9th April), Basia and Marek are a young immigrant couple living in Sweden.

Phone: 624-5707 General Course Description The course presents contemporary Polish cinema from 1945 to the present. Concepts will be studied in their historical, political, philosophical, and aesthetic perspective. We will examine the important national themes in modern Polish cinema, relating them to the history of Poland and Eastern Europe. The main trends (schools, movements) in Polish cinema will be examined such as the so-called PolishSchool and the Cinema of Moral Concern. The works of most important modern Polish film-makers will be examined, including the works of Andrzej Wajda, Andrzej Munk, Agnieszka Holland, Roman Polanski, Krzysztof Kieslowski, Wladyslaw Pasikowski, Leszek Wosiewicz, and Ryszard Bugajski. Films to be examined may be divided into three general groups 1. Films representing post-war history and, more specifically, films covering important social and political transformations, but made after the fact. These are sometimes called revisionist films in search of historical truth, previously distorted by political ideology. 2. Films dealing with World War II. We will look at different ways in which the war is treated by film-makers over the course of the post-war period. 3. The final group of films is chosen purely on the basis of artistic merit. The role of film as an art form will be examined during the different periods of the post-World-War-Two era.

  • Poland Daily: Economy, Work, Consumption and Social Class in Polish Cinema | Pol-Int
    Pol-Int MONOGRAPH Poland Daily: Economy, Work, Consumption and Social Class in Polish Cinema Published: 04.07.2019 Reviewed by M.A. Jon Baldwin Edited by Dr. Andrzej Klimczuk Anna Labentz Ewa Mazierska's book brings together film, identity, economy and class in the entirety of Polish cinema. The role of Polish film in constructing an externally recognised patriotic national identity, often against internal reflection and social reform, is clearly emphasised: "The most critically acclaimed Polish films show Poles fighting against external enemies, rather than dealing with everyday problems and enjoying the small pleasures in life" (p. 3). The book, then, shows how Polish cinema has carried macro-ideologies through its history and marginalised the micro-everyday: indeed, following Ben Highmore, downplaying the everyday risks by neglecting the dominated for the sake of listening to the dominating elites. Mazierska, who has published extensively on European cinema, as well as monographs on Roman Polański and Jerzy Skolimowski, writes of her work that "this project has much to do with listening to voices from below, or finding out why they are silenced or represented in one way rather than another" (p. 4). Mazierska utilises a concise (occasionally restrictive) Marxist approach: "I want to find out where, to use Marxist categories, there is a fit between the base and superstructure" (p. 25). She reverses the 'retreat from class' analysis of national cinema, a retreat caused in part by the disappointment with the defeat of the western working class in the struggle with capital. She also reverses the paucity of Polish film studies: "we barely see any studies analysing how the state of the country's economy and, especially, its transformation, affected representations, except for some general remarks" (p.

  • Burning Bush
    presents BURNING BUSH A Film by Agnieszka Holland 2013 / Czech Republic / in Czech with English subtitles / Color A Kino Lorber Release from Kino Lorber, Inc. 333 West 39 St., Suite 503 New York, NY 10018 (212) 629-6880 Publicity Contact: Rodrigo Brandão – [email protected] Matt Barry – [email protected] SHORT SYNOPSIS The three-part drama, directed by the Polish director Agnieszka Holland, is HBO Europe’s most ambitious, big-budget project to date. The film returns to a pivotal time in modern Czech history, ignored in Czech cinema until now. It begins with a reconstruction of the shocking act of a Czech university student, who in protest of the Soviet occupation of Czechoslovakia, set himself on fire in Prague’s Wenceslas Square on January 16, 1969, and died four days later. Through the story of the brave defense attorney Dagmar Burešová, who defended Palach’s legacy in a doomed lawsuit, the film examines the transformations taking place in Czechoslovak society after the invasion of the armies of the Warsaw Pact in August of 1968 and the installation of a hardline Communist government. It depicts the beginnings of Czech and Slovak resistance against the occupation, which reached its apex with the mass protests during Palach’s funeral. It also shows the nation’s gradual resignation under the pressure of fear and harsher persecution. LONG SYNOPSIS Part I On the 16th of January1969 on Wenceslas Square in Prague, a young student sets himself on fire in front of dozens of passers-by. Police Major Jireš (Ivan Trojan) investigates the circumstances of Palach’s actions.

Her mixed cultural heritage has affected a fearless honesty in Holland's beliefs & has provided much of the political force behind her filmmaking. Denounced by some as an anti-Semite but also honoured by Jewish associations, Holland's dissidence suggests a struggle with morality that most certainly stemmed from her parents: her mother, a Catholic, fought in the 1944 Warsaw Uprising & her father served in the Soviet Union's Red Army. Graduating from the Prague film academy in the early 1970s, she worked as an assistant director for Krzysztof Zanussi and Andrzej Wajda before starting her own directing career in the mid-'70s. Her intimate, committed & often critical work focused on both the world of art (filmmaking, theatre) & the daily grind of people in contemporary Poland. In 1981, after 2 of her key films were banned in her own country (Fever & A Lonely Woman), Holland escaped the political turmoil in Poland & went into exile in France, where she was able to continue making bold films with her trademark dark humour. Her often- gentle observations of the human condition & relationships are powerfully contrasted with an unapologetic desire to present everything as she sees it, without hesitation.

  • Jerzy Skolimowski Retrospective Celebrates Polish Director’S Singular Career
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE JERZY SKOLIMOWSKI RETROSPECTIVE CELEBRATES POLISH DIRECTOR’S SINGULAR CAREER June 10–July 3, 2011 Director to make personal appearance with June 10 th screening of Essential Killing , new film starring Vincent Gallo With his intense poetic style, Jerzy Skolimowksi has been one of the most distinctive voices in international cinema since he emerged as a leading figure in the 1960s Polish New Wave. A painter, poet, and writer, Skolimowski made films throughout Europe in the 1970s and 1980s, and then abandoned cinema in the 1990s. He made an impressive return to filmmaking in recent years with Four Nights with Anna and his boldly enigmatic film Essential Killing , starring Vincent Gallo. From June 10 through July 3, 2011, Museum of the Moving Image will present a major retrospective devoted to the film director, which will be the first stop in a national tour of the films that also includes the Harvard Film Archive. The series, The Cinema of Jerzy Skolimowski , will include eleven feature films as well as a selection of short films made while he was a student at the prestigious Lodz Film School. The retrospective opens with a personal appearance by Skolimowski on June 10 th with a screening of Essential Killing . [6/6/11 update: personal appearance cancelled.] Many of the films in the retrospective are not in distribution in the United States and not available on DVD. Among the highlights are several semi-autobiographical films, including the rarely shown cult favorite Deep End , starring Jane Asher and John Moulder-Brown set in a London bath house; the Polish films Identification Marks: None (Rysopis ), Walkover , and Hands Up! —known together as the Andrzej Leszczyc trilogy—and all featuring Skolimowski as actor as well as director; his “French” film, Le départ , starring Jean-Pierre Léaud; and Moonlighting , a humorous yet scathing tale of Polish laborers renovating a London flat starring Jeremy Irons.

This year, the Festival was produced as an annual event for the first time (rather than being a biannual event). Still, as one of the biggest and most important in its field, the Festival set its goal to portray a vast portrait of current international student films, create a unique and free environment for cinematic discourse and to expose the students to new and classic films, technologies, creators and more. The biggest event of the festival was the "2013 CILECT Prize", featuring 100 short student films from all over the world. 80 international students arrived to Israel for the festival, as well as a dozen lecturers of film studies from major international film schools (all from CILECT institutes). Alongside the International Panorama (CILECT Prize), the Israeli Competition was held, the largest and most important in Israel, the Mediterranean and Arab Countries Competition. Also for the first time – we held an Israeli independent Short Films Competition (short films who weren't produced as part of an academic institute). The Festival collaborated with the Israeli Film & TV Academy, and initiated a new academy award for the best Israeli Short Film. The winning film will be chosen out of a shortlist created by the Festival's jury. We believe this will give the Israeli student films a greater exposure for the wide audience as well as for the film industry persons, members of the academy, thus giving young filmmakers new opportunities.
