The criminal who stole a cirime

Forced to retire early because of his health problems, captain Siwy goes back to
an old case which still bugs him. Who was the true killer of the beautiful Ewa
Salm, known across the Warsaw nightclubs as the Princess? Was something
overlooked during the investigation?
The cream of Polish actors in a film deemed to be the best of its genre. Janusz
Majewski’s “The Criminal Who Stole a Crime” is a clash between a crime mystery
and an intriguing film form, it blends paradocumentary elements, shots
from a reporter’s camera and interestingly framed scenes of questionings. The
film’s greatest advantage is, undoubtedly, the realistic picture of Warsaw’s criminal
nightlife, with its dens, collapsing tenement houses of the Praga quarter
and scoundrels hanging around notorious restaurants.
A screen adaptation of Krzysztof Kąkolewski’s novel awarded in a contest organised
by the Headquarters of the Citizens’ Militia.

The Dybbuk. A Tale of Wandering Souls

Rebbe Nachman, the founder of the Breslov Hasidic movement, taught in Uman (Humań) and Breslov (Bracław). Nachman was born in 1772, four years after rebellious peasants and Cossacks led by Gonta and Żeleźniak had murdered thousands of Uman inhabitants - mainly Jews and Poles.

Every year thousands of Hasidim from all around the world visit Nachman’s grave. It is not to everybody’s liking. The people of Uman accuse the local authorities of corruption and betrayal. The Hasidim, in turn, are outraged at the planned erection of a monument to commemorate Gonta and Żeleźniak responsible for the Uman massacre.

Only the old Wolodia, who takes care of the Jewish cemetery in Breslov, is not interested in these quarrels. In the cellars under his house, in an abandoned synagogue, on the cemetery and in the air drift the countless souls of the dead. Dybbuks - punished spirits, are trying to escape from this world...
