Bad luck / Zezowate szczęscie starring Bogumił Kobiela
The Polish Cultural Institute New York and the Film at the Lincoln Center present a virtual retrospective of movies directed by Andrzej Munk (1921-1961). Munk, with his incisive mind and wry humor has created a cannon of feature movies that were as important to Polish Film School movement of the late 1950s as Adrzej Wajda’s.
