“He looked at everything as if through an imaginary camera” – Photography in Ari Folman’s Waltz with Bashir   The article analyzes the theme of photography in Ari Folman’s Waltz with Bashir (2008). It shows the relation between photography and narration as well as similarities between the way the photographic medium functions and the mechanisms of trauma. The author points out that Folman’s documentary film uses the theme of photography as a metaphor for the characters’ emotional distance to what they experience.

The article focuses on pointing out the functions of using animation technique and elements of the science fiction genre in Ari Folman’s The Congress from 2013. The film, which is loosely based on the short story The Futurological Congress by Stanisław Lem, balances on the edge of various genres, using the techniques of both live action film and computer animation. Folman proposes a glamorous, colorful vision of an (anti)utopian future, in which pharmacologically-modified cyborg-people participate in a collective hallucination, which is an alternative reality to the post-apocalyptic real world. The director makes several significant changes to the original, thanks to which he introduces a universal message and asks questions which seem far more relevant in the context of both contemporary culture and the environmental crisis that can no longer be ignored (although the issue of an impending natural disaster was also important in Lem’s works).
