The Photo Film People (2017)

A small town in the Owl Mountains in south-western Poland. There was an extraordinary discovery in the attic of the local house - 120 seventy-year old rolls of films were found in an old box. They show the world which has already vanished. The main character decided to find the people who posed in about 800 black and white pictures. Many of them didn't know about the photos or couldn't remind the circumstances of their taking. The whole town began to be absorbed in this unusual story, and the search was reported by newspapers and television stations. Finally, the memories of the people from the pictures - as it turns out, the first Polish settlers in the former German lands - became a play for the theatre. The photographer was Filip Rozbicki - a deceased veteran and church organist. In his free time, Rozbicki documented the daily lives of the inhabitants of the mountain town, in which many nations and languages mingled.
