Shadow

Cień / Jerzy Kawalerowicz / Poland 1956 / 98 min. / DCP
An unknown man jumps off a train and smashes his face. There’s no way to either save him or identify him. Who’s the mysterious man? This question triggers the retrospective narration of another three protagonists. Shadow signalled the diversion from the obligatory socialist realism.
