Prezentowany w 2004 roku w CSW Zamek Ujazdowski projekt „Entuzjaści” Marysi Lewandowskiej i Neila Cummingsa przypomina współczesnemu odbiorcy o ruchu Amatorskich Klubów Filmowych - zjawisku o masowym charakterze, które rozwijało się w Polsce Ludowej od początku lat 50. do końca lat 80., a po transformacji ustrojowej zostało zepchnięte na margines historii rodzimego kina. Choć powodem tego były między innymi relacje łączące amatorów z reżimem komunistycznym, to jednak przyglądając się zjawisku obecnie, można dojść do wniosku, że działający w klubach filmowcy pozostawali często poza oficjalną sferą kultury, przyjmując kontrkulturową taktykę oporu i krytyki. „Entuzjaści” odsłaniają ponadto arbitralność historii polskiego kina, która opiera się na kanonie wykluczającym takie zjawiska, które do niego nie pasują, jak na przykład twórczość członków AKF-ów.

Marysia Lewandowska and Neil Cummings’ project „The Enthusiasts” presented in 2004 at the Centre for Contemporary Art Ujazdowski Castle reminds the contemporary member of the audience about the Amateur Film Club movement, a mass phenomenon which took place in Polish People’s Republic between 1950s and late 1980s, and which, following the political transformation, was pushed into the margins of the history of Polish cinema. Although the reason for this was, among other things, the relations linking the amateurs with the communist regime, looking at it now, one may conclude that filmmakers participating in the clubs often remained outside of the official sphere of culture, adopting guerrilla tactics of resistance and criticism. „The Enthusiasts” project also reveals the arbitrary nature of the history of Polish cinema, which is based on a canon that excludes phenomena that do not fit in, such as for example the work of the members of the Amateur Film Clubs.

Cinema in Memories of Women Viewers from Kraków. Oral History as a Methodology of Cinema and SpectatorshipThe main issue of the text is to examine several different methods of studies of women as spectators. The most accurate methodology seems to be a paradigm of oral history, combining methods of history, ethnological studies and sociology. The idea of research on women’s spectatorship is based on interpersonal contacts and interviews with women who have either knowledge or experience of film culture. There were several interviews that had taken place before writing the article, and each of them was given by a women living in Kraków for years. The collected material provided an interesting approach to the history of women as viewers and participants of film culture.

The text considers footage shot by amateur Polish filmmakers during or after the Second World War and focused on that period. These include films by Tadeusz Franiszyn from 1944 documenting German occupation of Krakow, footage from the Warsaw Ghetto shot by Alfons Ziółkowski in 1941 and a feature-length documentary Oświęcim shot by the Amateur Film Club Śląsk in 1960 and showing the remains of the Auschwitz-Birkenau camp. All of these materials have unquestionable historic value and provide a unique depiction of the Second World War era. However, neither of them is well-known and neither has been thoroughly examined despite the fact that they all have circulated in the public sphere both as exceptional footage and historical documents. Their exclusion is connected with their amateur status which points not to the value and quality of non-professional films, but to their otherness. What defines the specific nature of amateur films is that their topic is as relevant as the reason they have been made – the very moment of filming and their context.
