The Museum of the Moving Image<\/strong> Silent Night<\/em><\/strong>, winner of Best Film, Director, Script, and Actor at this year\u2019s Polish Film Awards and Best Film and Actor at the Gdynia Film Festival is a powerful feature debut from Piotr Domalewski<\/strong>, heralding the arrival of one of the country\u2019s most accomplished rising stars. On Christmas Eve in a small village, Adam (Dawid Ogrodnik<\/strong>)–a young economic migrant who works in the Netherlands–unexpectedly returns home for his large family\u2019s holiday gathering. What the clan doesn\u2019t know is that Adam has an ulterior motive for the visit–one that will force a reckoning with the dark undercurrents of Polish family life. Masterfully balancing raw naturalism with tragicomic humor, „Domalewski\u2019s may be just the voice that Polish cinema needs: quiet, yet persistent–and most of all, not afraid to tell the truth” (Cineuropa). The film is also starring Arkadiusz Jakubik<\/strong>, Agnieszka Suchora<\/strong>, Tomasz Zietek<\/strong>, Maria Debska<\/strong>. Cinematography by Piotr Sobocinski Jr.<\/strong> Music by Waclaw Zimpel<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Panorama Europe 2018, the tenth edition of the festival of new and vital European cinema, co-presented by Museum of the Moving Image and the members of EUNIC (European Union National Institutes for Culture), includes fiction and documentary works that present a portrait of contemporary Europe during a period of tremendous flux. The festival, which launched in 2009 by Czech Center New York, continues to give New Yorkers an eclectic overview of the current European film scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Highlighting recent films from throughout the continent, several of the films explore dialogues between the historic upheavals of the twentieth century and the current moment. Screenings will take place at both Museum of the Moving Image and the Bohemian National Hall. Guest curated by Nellie Killian.\n\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Saturday, May 12, 2018, 4:00 PM The Museum of the Moving Image36-01 35th Avenue (at 37th Street), Astoria, NYTickets: $15 ($11 seniors and students \/ free for Museum members) With additional screening:Tuesday, May 22nd, 2018 at 7pmBohemian National Hall321 East 73 Street, NYC Silent Night, winner of Best Film, Director, Script, and Actor at this year\u2019s […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":105,"featured_media":505,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"single-event.php","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-504","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-film"],"yoast_head":"\n
