Meeting with the director, editor Bigna Tomschin and composer Aleksander Makowski
after the film LETTERS FROM WOLF STREET, dir. Arjun Talwar
A small street in downtown Warsaw. Arjun Talwar, an Indian immigrant, came to Poland over a decade ago. To overcome boundaries between himself and an anxiety-ridden country, he begins filming his neighbors: a postman delivering remedies for loneliness, an exile recreating his hometown, and others with hidden stories to tell. Through their lives, Arjun reflects on his own search for belonging and unveils a kaleidoscopic view of modern Europe, while Poland, often seen as unwelcoming, is humorously and tenderly reimagined through the lens of a foreign filmmaker.
