PEOPLE ON THE BRIDGE + SAMUEL
PEOPLE ON THE BRIDGE (LUDZIE NA MOSCIE)
2014, 5 min, USA
English
dir. BEATA POŹNIAK
An experimental short film based on a poem "People on the Bridge" written by Nobel Prize winner Wislawa Szymborska and narrated by Beata Pozniak. Visuals of Beata performing are intermingled with images of a 19th century Japanese woodblock print entitled "People on a Bridge" by Hiroshige Utagawa which provided the original inspiration for the poem. The bridge symbolizes a powerful connection between places, historical periods and cultures.
Eksperymentalny film krótkometrażowy na podstawie poematu "Ludzie na moście", napisanego przez laureatkę Nagrody Nobla Wisławę Szymborską z narracją Beaty Poźniak. Sceniczne wizualizacje przemieszane są z XIX-wiecznymi japońskimi drzeworytami autorstwa Hiroshige Utagawa, które były oryginalną inspiracją dla poetki.
