Portrait of Jarosław Kamiński

Juliana Moska, Jan Vališ / Czech Republic / 2022 / World Premiere / 5 min.


synopsis

The editor of internationally acclaimed films, e.g. Ida, Cold War or Quo vadis, Aida?, is Jarosław Kamiński, a FAMU graduate. A native of Łódź, Poland, he takes a walk through his city in this short, refined film portrait, remembering his childhood when he used to run away from school to the cinema, and reflecting on his ties with today’s Poland and yesterday’s Prague alike.

“I remember one day when I ran away from my school to the cinema. It was a French film.” — Jarosław Kamiński

biography

After some time spent as a student of theatre acting, Juliana Moska (* 1994) started her studies at the Department of Documentary Filmmaking at FAMU. The “Czech Joy” section at Ji.hlava IFDF presented her experimental film Animot, a view from the perspective of animals kept in a rescue shelter. One of the film’s cameramen and co-director was Jan Vališ, a student at FAMU’s director of photography department.
