National competition

Special screening of ‘A Whale Song’, a documentary by Michał Hytroś, with the participation of the film protagonist, Krzysztof Globisz. ‘The way a person stammers, groans and searches for words says much more about them than the actual content of the message,’ – this statement by Krzysztof Globisz captures his phenomenon as an actor and an individual. The film is an impressionistic portrayal in which the actor’s post-stroke recovery of speech becomes self-therapy and a creative process at the same time. It shows how, through his ‘whale haiku’, the protagonist communicates anew with his surroundings, and the viewers obtain an opportunity to immerse themselves for a moment in his inner world. Invitations apply Partners: Studio Munka, AST National Academy of Theatre Arts in Krakow
