Niezalezna Republika Samosiuk

Directing: Adam Lewandowski

Synopsis

The film is a portrait of Zygmunt Samosiuk, a great forgotten cinematographer who died in 1983. As a director of photography he worked on such films as The Birch Wood, Landscape After the Battle and Austeria. He introduced, among others, hand-held camera shots, colour lighting and shooting at minimum exposure. Reminiscences of his colleagues and friends, including Andrzej Wajda and Piotr Szulkin, show a gifted artist and a modest man who valued his work above all.
