SUMMARY:CULTURAL BACKGROUNDS
DESCRIPTION:Cultural Backgrounds series is an original idea for the screening of films that describe specific cultural climate and social phenomena characteristic for a certain part of the world, regardless of whether the director used a form of documentary, feature or animation. The films in Cultural Backgrounds are a peculiar reaction to those phenomena in cinema, allowing us to look at the matters of people from other cultural circles through their own eyes, and not through the perspective of the Western culture. \n \nscreening curator: Andrzej Rusin\n \nHead on the Wall, dir.
