Krakow Film Festival celebrates the 90th birthday of the Master of the Cinema.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Each year, the programme of Krakow Film Festival abounds with many special events, made as a homage to outstanding artists. Also this year, apart from competition sections, there are many extraordinary events planned for the festival, among them, an amazing film review dedicated to the most outstanding Polish film-maker, Andrzej Wajda, who celebrates his 90th birthday this year.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n “Andrzej Wajda is a Great Master of the cinema, the unique artist and exceptional authority, the educator of new generations, the reliable friend of the festival, often the host of special events<\/strong>. <\/p>\n An unusual selection of the films, which will be shown at the 56th edition of the Festival, was made by Prof. Tadeusz Lubelski<\/strong>, a recognised film critic and theorist. The key to the selection was depicting Andrzej Wajda from various perspectives and different sides of the camera.\u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Within the frames of the first part of the review, “Wajda in someone else’s lens,” we will see the director working on the films “Everything for Sale” and “The Wedding” in two making-of productions: “Na planie”<\/strong> by Jerzy Ziarnik and “Pan\u2026 dziad z lir\u0105” <\/strong>by S\u0142awomir Idziak and Andrzej Kotkowski. The film “Ceg\u0142a i inne nagrody filmowe” <\/strong>by Marek Brodzki will show the “behind the scenes” and circumstances of giving Wajda film awards, including the eponymous brick.\u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Andrzej Wajda is also a sensitive viewer and a perceptive reviewer, who has the beautiful need to communicate his impressions to the author live, immediately after the final credits. Andrzej Wajda is an art lover, connoisseur, an admirer of extraordinary talents. These are some of the Artist’s faces that we will show in our review.
And today, we wish our Master a beautiful portrait of W\u0142adys\u0142aw Strzemi\u0144ski in the current film \u201dPowidoki\u201d. Ad multos annos!\u201d Krzysztof Gierat, Director of Krakow Film Festival, felicitates the artist.\u00a0<\/p>\n
