Beschreibung

Recognised as one of the most significant contemporary directors, Pawel Pawlikowski achieved global acclaim with the Academy Award-winning Ida. (2013). ReFocus: The Films of Pawel Pawlikowski. is the first book-length study of the director's illustrious career, spanning nearly four decades and two countries - Great Britain and Poland. This volume traces Pawlikowski's artistic journey, from early, lesser-known BBC documentaries to breakthrough international successes like Last Resort. (2000), My Summer of Love. (2004), and the critically acclaimed Cold War. (2018). Through in-depth analysis of his films, the book uncovers recurring themes such as identity, love, memory, and journeys, often set against historical and social upheavals. It examines his distinctive style - marked by minimalist visuals - arguing that with atmospheric modernist aesthetics, Pawlikowski not only consciously develops the tradition of European art film but also demonstrates the continued significance of authorship in a transnational context.
