DO PAINTERS DIE ELSEWHERE
POLISH TITLE: DOKĄD UMIERAJĄ MALARZE
REPRESENTED BY KFF
„Do Painters Die Elsewhere” is an immersive, intimate love story portrait, guided by the artist’s life rather than a traditional biographical narrative. It does not follow a chronological retelling of a “great painter’s” life, nor does it rely on conventional talking-head interviews. Instead, the film draws us into an emotional mosaic, woven from archival materials that Bolko himself collected—artifacts that once gave him a sense of purpose in moments of doubt.
