Following last month's popular night of cinema, photography, beer and people of Poland, it's back. New film series launched - Cinema Polska.... You can't miss it !!

The night starts with bigos, Polish vegi delicacy, specialy prepared for Star and Shadow guests by a new Polish Restaurant. And bigos goes great with.....beer (no need to mention, it will be Polish as well)


Next is the movie: 'Teraz Ja' which means 'It's me now'. We continue with Polish debuts. This time it is a feature film debut by Anna Jadowska, 33-year-old  graduate from the National Film, Television & Theatre School in Lodz, Poland. 


A beautiful road movie.  One day, Hanka goes shopping and for no obvious reason does not return home. She gets on a bus and starts her trip around Poland with a shopping bag as her only luggage. Her partner Pawel searches for her all over and reports her missing to the police. Eventually he also sets out on a journey. Both Hanna and Paweł are taking the same route: Hanna by running away from her life and her boyfriend, Pawel by searching for her. During these two identical and separate journeys, they meet strange and fascinating characters along the way - people just like them, who cannot find their place in the world.
The movie has been acclaimed at the Warsaw and Moscow Film Festivals.

After the movie, more beer, music, and Polish-English talk...
