The Mine
A film dedicated to miners, showing the hardship and risk of working in a mine. Devoid of verbal commentary, it draws its impact from the form: suggestive cinematography close to the pre-war avant-garde, dynamic editing closely linked to music. Brzozowska was accused of formalism at the 1949 Congress of Filmmakers in Wisła, where socialist realism was proclaimed.
Daens
"Daens: The Musical" takes you to the Aalst (Belgium back in 1888) where Father Daens has his battle against the social mis-understandings and equal rights for everybody. At the same time there is a romance growing between Nette and Jan.
Black Birds
