ANDRZEJ WAJDA: LET'S SHOOT!
POLISH TITLE: ANDRZEJ WAJDA: RÓBMY ZDJĘCIE!
This documentary portrait of the most famous founder of the Polish cinema was made by four students of the Andrzej Wajda Master School of Film Directing. Their observations, captured on the filming location of Katyń at the turn of 2006 and 2007, combined with the fragments of the director’s monologue make an original picture, different from the familiar and popular image of Andrzej Wajda promoted by the media.
