Pawel Pawlikowski

Harstad Kino Sal 1

Polish language, norwegian subtitles

A passionate love story between two people of different backgrounds and temperaments, who are fatefully mismatched, set against the background of the Cold War in the 1950s in Poland, Berlin, Yugoslavia and Paris.

"The crystalline black-and-white cinematography exalts its moments of intimate grimness and its dreamlike showpieces of theatrical display. It is an elliptical, episodic story of imprisonment and escape, epic in scope." Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/film/2018/may/11/cold-war-review-wounded-love-and-state-sponsored-fear-in-1940s-poland
