참여 작품

The Moth
Director of Photography
This is psychological drama by Tomasz Zygadlo begins as a straightforward story. Jan (Roman Wilhelmi) is the host of a nightly talk show in which he counsels people who call in with their problems. He is dedicated to helping these lonely souls but becomes increasingly disturbed when his co-workers and supervisors at the radio station do not appreciate his program; they seem unable to grasp the importance of what he is doing. Aside from that, Jan's private life is frayed around the edges. His wife is a heavy drinker and his mistress has no comprehension about who he is or what he is doing. Jan's frustration over this lack of recognition builds to an explosive level, threatening to upset the balance of his daily life.
Sekret Enigmy

Three Polish mathematicians are the first to crack the sophisticated Enigma code used by the Germans just before the Second World War.

After the invasion, the Polish cipher bureau escapes and continues their decoding in Algeria and unoccupied France.
