A
touching journey through the world of the Master of
Film Directing, Andrzej Wajda, at work on the closest
to his heart project: "Katyn," an Oscar nominated
film about the mass murder of Polish officers by the
NKVD during World War II. The documentary created by
The Paladino Film Team, a group of four graduates from
Wajda's School of Film Directing. By following Wajda's
every step on the set, they managed to show more than
the "beyond the scenes" of a large production.
Most importantly, they took Wajda off the celebrity
pedestal, presenting his humor, sensitivity to people
and nature, kindness, dedication to his art ("I
get up in the morning and make movies"), moments
of frustration ("Mister Andrzej, shoot goddamn
it!") and even overwhelming emotions when during
shooting one of the scenes he needs to walk away into
the woods as he is reminded of his father who was also
killed in Katyn.
