Kazimierz Karabasz visits circles of amateur photographers in small towns (most of the photographs were taken in Włodawa) and listens to their stories about the town, its inhabitants and photographing their everyday life. The young people, who are active at community centres, show the documentarian what role photography plays in their lives and how it influences their perception of their surroundings: places and people. Photography thus becomes a school for looking, seeing and developing sensitivity. As it turns out, it is not always the form and workshop that are the most important.

Night Will Fall

When Allied forces liberated the Nazi concentration camps in 1944-45, their terrible discoveries were recorded by army and newsreel cameramen, revealing for the first time the full horror of what had happened. Making use of British, Soviet and American footage, the Ministry of Information’s Sidney Bernstein (later founder of Granada Television) aimed to create a documentary that would provide lasting, undeniable evidence of the Nazis’ unspeakable crimes. He commissioned a wealth of British talent, including editor Stewart McAllister, writer and future cabinet minister Richard Crossman – and, as treatment advisor, his friend Alfred Hitchcock. Yet, despite initial support from the British and US Governments, the film was shelved, and only now, 70 years on, has it been restored and completed by Imperial War Museums under its original title "German Concentration Camps Factual Survey".
