Jarocin '84

Jarocin '84 1970

1

A report on the Jarocin rock music festival in 1984. The normally sleepy town comes alive during the festival - it's crowded, colorful, bustling. Young people are everywhere: in the streets, the market, the stadium and the tent city. Some are shaved bald, others wear iroquois or long hair, sometimes multicolored. They talk about their ideas on life, their love for music. And how do the residents perceive their presence? Evaluations vary, but everyone stresses that the young people, despite their menacing appearance, are not aggressive, perhaps only occasionally indecent, for their presence has a positive impact on city life. Czeslaw Robakowski, the head of Jarocin, feels the same way, emphasizing the contribution of the town and the festival to the cultural development of the country.

Rockowisko '86

Rockowisko '86 1970

The "Rockowisko" Rock Music Festival was one of the most popular festivals of the 1980s in Poland. The report documents the latest, sixth edition of the festival, which was held at the Sports Hall in Lodz. The review's organizers note with regret the declining interest in rock music in Poland, which has affected concert ticket sales. In 1986, despite high financial outlays on advertising the festival, only 2,000 tickets were sold (for comparison - sales in 1981 amounted to 30,000). In the eyes of the audience, the festival has become commercialized, the invited bands do not play for ideas, for people, but for money. In behind-the-scenes conversations between organizers and journalists, we hear that the whole culture is in crisis, due to the economic crisis in the country, but also point to the marasm on the Polish rock scene, the lack of an invigorating sound that would attract crowds of people to concerts.

Pierogi: Stories with Stuffing

Pierogi: Stories with Stuffing 2022

"Pierogi - stories with stuffing" are short glances towards four different worlds. The characters of the film will let you into their lives for a moment, but they don't promise to reckon how their stories will end. In fact, you can be sure they left the endings for themselves. Stuffed stories are a search for the unusual in the ordinary. It is worth absorbing this uniqueness. Remember, the door will only be ajar for a moment.
