Film Details

How did one of the most inventive European animators of the 1950s and 1960s and provocative live-action directors of the 1970s come to be later regarded as only a failed erotic moviemaker? Fans like Terry Gilliam, Bertrand Bonello, Neil Jordan, Andrzej Wajda, and Slavoj Zizek weigh in on both the odd career trajectory and the brilliant successes (Immoral Tales, The Beast) of this puzzling Pole who died in 2006. Cleveland premiere. Subtitles. 72 min.
