'Pornografia' J.J.Kolskiego z muzyka Koniecznego
'Pornography'by Polish director J. J. Kolski, music by Z. Konieczny
Despite the title this work is a half-surreal, half-metaphysical rendition of how human beings work in their most powerful emotions: love, guilt, fear, dying... Wonderfully photographed, with some quality, catchy music and witty, sometimes demonic in its cynicism texts based on a novel by W. Gombrowicz...
Part1.
Is 1943, in 'ex-Poland', occupied by Nazis, a group of writers,artists and thinkers meets in a flat to play their role of bohemian 'spiritual leaders' despite of everything... Writer and a deeply humanistic soul
Witold (alter-ego of the author, white-bearded) meets Frederic - a 'dark' charactered, extremely ironic, mysterious artist, wanderer with sore past... In the last-minute scene Frederic asks: - Am I handsome? and Witold answers: - You've got the 'face'...And this is quite different category than being 'handsome'... And Frederic; - I'm not only handsome, I'm beautiful...
