- Course objectives
- The course is focused on two Eastern European nation cinemas, close from aesthetic and historic points of view. We will study the work of auteurs, which showed great courage and artistic originality in reflection of tragic collective experience, used their own metaphorical systems or created autonomous fiction worlds: Zoltán Fábri, Miklós Jancsó, István Szabó, András Kovács, Péter Bacsó, Márta Mészárosová, Zoltán Huszárik, Gábor Bódy, Béla Tarr. The Polish cinema was at the top of its social and artistic importance in the period of so called Polish school (1956-1963, Andrzej Munk, Jerzy Kawalerowicz, Wojciech J. Has) and in the period of the Cinema of Moral Anxiety (1976-1981, Krzysztof Zanussi, Krzysztof Kieslowski). The central figure of all periods is Andrej Wajda. We will also discuss authors whose career continued abroad (Roman Polański, Jerzy Skolimowski, Andrzej Żuławski). Literature: LIEHM, Mira & LIEHM, Antonín J.
