A film by Polish director Sofia Bohdanowicz which deals with her archival research into the letters of Polish poet Zofia Bohdanowiczowa (the filmmaker's great-grandmother). Shown in English, with Polish subtitles.
5th July, 13:10, Rio Cinema Dalston
After being appointed literary executor, Audrey Benac (Deragh Campbell) uncovers a series of letters that her great-grandmother had written to a fellow poet. Both displaced from Poland, Zofia Bohdanowiczowa and Nobel Prize nominee Jozef Wittlin corresponded from 1957-1964 between Toronto, Wales and New York City. Over the course of three days, Audrey embarks on a journey to Houghton Library at Harvard University to translate and make sense of Zofia’s words.
The screening will begin with one of Bohdanowicz’s short films, Point and Line to Plane.
