LONELINESS OF SOUND
POLISH TITLE: SAMOTNOŚĆ DŹWIĘKU
REPRESENTED BY KFF
This documentary introduces the figure of a less known composer, Tomasz Sikorski (1939-1988). His life was determined by the times of communism when he lived and worked. Lack of freedom or ability to discover himself combined with the incomprehension of his work by artistic circles, which rejected the extreme simplicity of his music, left a significant imprint on Sikorski. The film follows the life of the artist whose extraordinary talent and great sensitivity walked hand in hand with solitude.
