For Love with You

The original intention of the film was that there were four young people who used the lens to record the real life of their grandparents. During the creation process, they learned about the current aging situation in China. There are too many elderly people who lack company. So they decided Use what I have learned to shoot this movie "Everything is Like You". From the perspective of young people, it tells ten stories about "old care, filial piety and respect for the elderly". Their actions have been strongly supported by the older generation of film artists. This shooting is an unforgettable creative journey and a cultural heritage with a mission.

Kobro / Strzemiński. Opowieść fantastyczna

The film enters into a dialogue with biographism as a method of interpreting art, while also showing that it is impossible to escape biographism entirely. Its creators recognize the value in the attitude of avant-garde artists, which lay in overcoming life’s adversities and pushing their imagination beyond what others consider an insurmountable horizon. In this film, nothing is as it actually happened—and this not-happening is intentional. By watching situations that never took place, we can draw conclusions about the things that did. The viewer steps into the role of a detective, because a crime has been committed in this story. Among the suspects are: Fanny Kaplan, who attempted to take Lenin’s life; Fritz Haber, the father of chemical warfare, and his wife, who took her own life in despair; as well as the cities Paris, Moscow, St. Petersburg, and Łódź.
