ANDRZEJ ZULAWSKI | POLAND | 1988 | 157 MIN | NR | POLISH

A group of stranded astronauts build a new civilization on an inhabitable planet, but they are soon confronted with an unfathomable existential crisis at the arrival of a mysterious scientist in Zulawski’s visually awe-inspiring sci-fi masterpiece.

Cast: Andrzej Seweryn, Jerzy Trela, Grazyna Dylag, Waldemar Kownacki

Part of the Philadelphia Film Society’s MAD LOVE: ANDRZEJ ZULAWSKI series.
To experience a Andrzej Zulawski film is to completely surrender yourself to the famed Polish director’s fantastical and horrific realm of excess and big emotions. Each of his films challenge the status quo of what film was and could be with mesmerizing direction and performances that will linger with you long after the credits roll.

MovieJawn will be slinging zines and cinematic goodies in the lobby before and after the showing. Stop by and say hi to your friendly MovieJawn staff.

Location: Philadelphia Film Society Center, 1412 Chestnut Street Philadelphia, PA 19102
