The documentaries ‘Komeda, Komeda…’ and ‘Beauty and the Breast’ shown in theatres.
Two, amongst many documentary films presentes at the Krakow Film Festival, make their way to the theatres across Poland in October.
‘Komeda, Komeda…’ directed by Natasza Ziółkowska – Kurczuk and presented in Krakow within ‘Sound of Music’ cycle, is an artistic biography of Krzysztof Komeda. The artist’s history and the beginnings of jazz in Poland are reported by his collaborators, friends, musicians and family members, including Jan Ptaszyn Wróblewski, Michał Urbaniak, Leszek Możdżer, Wojciech Karolak, Andrzej Wajda and Roman Polański. Animations by Piotr Dumała add artistic value to the film.
The film will be screened at:
– Warszawa – LUNA,
– Krakow – KINO POD BARANAMI,
– Łodz – KINO CHARLIE,
– Poznan- KINO APOLLO,
– Lublin – KINO BAJKA,
and art-house cinemas in Torun, Szczecin and other cities in Poland.
Not accidentally ‘Beauty and the Breast’ directed by Liliana Głąbczyńska – Komorowska hits the cinemas in October, the month devoted to fight with breast cancer. Canadian documentary, which world premiere was held at our Festival, as a part of ‘Krakow Documentary Premieres’, shows beautiful women – artists, models and singers armed with such unconventional weapons as yoga, body painting or parachute jumping and struggling with the disease.
On the occasion we remind the interview, which Anna Morawiec once had with the director Liliana Głąbczyńska – Komorowska in our Festival Studio.
