The Cold War, GFT
1 – 13 September, 2018
Winner of the Best Director award at the Cannes 2018, Paweł Pawlikowski’s Cold War is an epic romance set against the backdrop of Europe after World War II. Sumptuously shot in black and white, and set to a soundtrack of rustic folk songs and sultry jazz, it spans decades and nations to tell a love story that is as tragic as it is moving. Wiktor (Tomasz Kot) and Zula (Joanna Kulig) fall deeply, obsessively and destructively in love. As performing musicians forced to play into the Soviet propaganda machine, they dream of escaping to the creative freedom of the West. But one day, as they spot their chance to make a break for Paris, both make a split decision that will mark their lives forever.
