The Man with the Camera: The Stormy History of Cinema Sztuka | Meeting

The Sztuka Cinema at St. John Street was one of the most important and unusual places on the film map of Krakow. It worked — intermittently — for almost 100 years, accompanying the transformation of the city, the cinema and its audience. It attracted with its unique atmosphere, repertoire and events that have been recorded in the memory of subsequent generations of Krakowians. During the lecture we will learn about the history of this place — from the beginning of its activity through the successive stages, until the end of its existence.

Conducting:

Maciej Gil — historian of cinema, researcher of history and animator of film culture, journalist, editor, speaker, educator, festival jury and selector. For more than two decades he has been the organizer and program consultant of numerous film events in Poland and abroad, including the Kinobus project dedicated to the history of cinemas and Krakow Film Walks.
