Obława as a great surprise
To me, Marcin Krzyształowicz’s Obława (Manhunt) was a great surprise at this year’s competition. In 1965, Stanisław Różewicz created a film étude, Na melinę, about a doubtful sentence passed on a traitor by a guerrilla group. The picture was put on the shelf for many years.
