I Am/Jestem

I Am/Jestem

DIRECTOR: Dorota Kędzierzawska
Poland : 2005 : 93MINS : Polish : English subtitles

"I have chosen my absolute favourite film, I Am/Jestem. I love this film like I made it. Films are so personal. I haven't shown it to anyone I love in fear of them not liking it. Food in this film emerges as a potent emblem for survival and love. Every time the main character finds food, you are absolutely with him, relishing every miserly morsel from collecting scrap metal to buy a bowl of soup, to breaking shop windows to steal bread. The relationship between the boy and the little girl who lives on top of the river bank begins so strangely, with beer but then as their friendship blossoms, she begins to leave him food parcels hung on her gate before she leaves for school. I love the way that the food in this film is at its most basic." POH LING YEOW

DOROTA KEDZIERZAWSKA AND POH LING YEOW WILL INTRODUCE THE FILM.
