Helena
Director:
Magdalena Dąbrowska
Duration:
35 minutes
Another theatrical exploration of the history of Polish women from a folk perspective following in the footsteps of Chłopki and Chamstwo. Based on a family story, Helena juxtaposes a meticulously edited interview with granny Helena with a visual development of selected themes to bring to surface what words have concealed. A moving miniature for two actors, two puppets, an offstage voice, And AI, used at times, yet for good reasons.
