Summary: | Discusses the Series (1988) one of the last major film/television works produced in communist Poland and the attempt of a contemporary artist to deal with the bulwark of the Judeo-Christian ethical system and measure it against his vision of today's world. Four chapters deal with construction of the protagonist in axiomatic time and space; how he or she is apprehended by the viewer; and the self-transcendence of the protagonist. Includes a selected filmography but lacks an index. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or. |
