SYNOPSIS

A portrait of great forgotten cinematographer Zygmunt Samosiuk who died in 1983. As a director of photography he worked on such films as "The Birch Wood", "Landscape After the Battle" and "Austeria". He introduced, among others, hand held camera shots, colour lights and shooting at minimum exposure. Reminiscences of his colleagues and friends, including Andrzej Wajda and Piotr Szulkin, show a gifted artist and a modest man who valued his work above all.
