Identity marks: None
Opera prima with all the strength and claw of someone who clings to a project as if it were a lifeboat moments before a shipwreck.
Dispersed film unified through the freedoms that Modernity with a baroque tendency (It is a Polish film in the sixties) promoted.
I'm a sucker for first films and black and white, but without a doubt (and Jean Luc Godard and the Mubi streaming service vouch for me) this is a great movie.
It is a short film, made up of a small succession of long shots.
Although the story proposes to tell: A day in the life of a man for whom circumstances have outgrown him.
Unlike its protagonist, played by himself, the story and its circumstances were not great for Mr. Skolimowski who manages to present his proposal, making inspired use of his shortcomings.
Poland has been a breeding ground for good cinema since the Lodz film school was founded. It's nice to find the beginning of other great filmmakers.
(Skolimowski is a co-writer on Knife in the Toilet, so many moviegoers know his work even if they can't pronounce his last name.)
