CAN ANYONE BE A MOVIE-HERO? CAN YOU CAPTURE THE WORLD IN A SINGLE SHOT? DIRECTOR PAWEŁ ŁOZIŃSKI IS WATCHING PEOPLE FROM HIS BALCONY. THEY PASS BY SMILING, SAD, PENSIVE, GAPING AT THEIR PHONES, YOUNG AND OLD. RESIDENTS OF THE DISTRICT, OR RANDOM VISITORS, AVERAGE PASSERS-BY. THE AUTHOR CHATS THEM UP, ASKS THEM QUESTIONS, TALKS TO THEM ABOUT HOW THEY’RE DEALING WITH LIFE. STANDING THERE, CAMERA IN HAND, FOR TWO YEARS, HW CREATED A SPACE OF DIALOGUE, A PROFANE CONFESSIONAL, WHERE ONE CAN STOP AT AND TELL OTHER PEOPLE ABOUT THEM-SELF. THE CHARACTERS HOLD SECRETS AND RIDDLES, MAKING THEMSELVES HARD TO PIGEONHOLE. EACH STORY IS UNIQUE AND THEIR LIVES ARE ARE ONES THAT COULDN’T BE MADE UP. ‘THE BALCONY MOVIE’ IS A RADICAL COME-BACK TO THE EARLY DAYS OF CINEMATOGRAPHY, WHEN IT WAS THAT WOULD COME TO THE CAMERA. MAYBE ONE SHOULD JUST STOP FOR A BIT LONGER, IN ORDER TO SEE MORE?
