Artur Zmijewski is one of the most controversial contemporary Polish artists. His work - art installations, films, video works are not simply works of art, but political acts that have a very strong social and political dimension. In the interview the political and social aspects of Zmijewski's work and contemporary art in general are explored. Zmijewski talks about omnipresence of ideology, about the critique of late capitalism and about the need to become immersed in contemporary social reality. The artist is not engaged in the problems of representations, but rather he considers the direct impact of the medium on the social and political reality.

Agnieszka Holland's 'A Girl Like Me: The Gwen Araujo Story', a 2006 TV-film, almost unknown in Poland, was for many American transsexuals and their families a moment of revelation. Made for the Lifetime channel, a station specializing in family programming, such as good food programs, the film was not only screened during prime-time but also was seen by a record number of viewers, usually reserved for great cinema blockbusters. During the first showing of the film, the story of Eddy-Gwen, a transsexual boy, was seen by over five million viewers. Hollands film met not only with great commercial success but also with critical acclaim of the press and film critics (the film was awarded a number of prizes). The author talks to the director about the problem of transsexualism, about Polish cinema that is unable to believably present eroticism and also about depicting sexual matters in her own films. The interview serves as a context for author's complementary article that brings the film closer to the readers.

The Hand's Six Finger. Marek Koterski's Documentaries

Marek Koterski only appears to be a well-known filmmaker in Poland. He is one of the country's major and highly rated cinema directors. However, little is known about his oeuvre as a documentary filmmaker. Koterski made documentaries in 1969-1986, setting social issues (poor condition of healthcare, drug addiction, antiwar posters) against the dissonance form of a film essay in 'Little Tenderness', 'The Future or The War Song'. The author points out the continuity of some staple components of Koterski's short films (irony, dramatised intervention themes) with his feature filmmaking. His nearly forgotten documentaries are not only the unusual testimony to the time they were made but also a surprisingly fresh and interesting example of the consistent development of the author's strategy of the future director of 'We Are All Christs'. The article has been written for a retrospective of Koterski's films at the 'Iluzjon' cinema of the Polish Cinema Archive.
