SUCH A LANDSCAPE
POLISH TITLE: TAKI PEJZAŻ
Miracle, Remedy, Regret, Prayer and Forgiveness – not to be afraid of. Jagoda Szelc believes that each one of us should teach somebody how to overcome the fear of dying. Avoiding a conventional plot "Such a landscape" follows the path of emotions and sensations of five stories based on actual events. On awarding "Such a landscape" with the Golden Tadpole at the 21st Camerimage Film Festival, jury president Caleb Deschanel noted that: "Such a Landscape is a beautifully told series of visual poems, that resolve themselves in a profound and affecting mystery".
