BRUNO SCHULZ

Bruno Schulz is one of the most well known and inspirational Polish artists. Through his creative work, he transformed his hometown Drohobycz as well as the Galician providence to somewhat of a promised land, it's soil, the path of anxious souls searching for their individual truth.The documentary reveals the magic of Schulz's prose and his art which have fascinated so many people the world over. Moreover, the film leads the viewer along the footsteps of the artist's life, his mysteries, manuscripts, drawings and women. The memories of witnesses are joined with images of Schultz's obsessive mythology of reality and of dreams.
