Sweet Rush Screening: Fri. Oct 16th, 2009 @ 4:00 PM - Smith Rafael Film Center, San Rafael, CA
Legendary Polish director Andrzej Wajda returns for the fourth time to the prose of Jaroslaw Iwaszkiewicz (following adaptations in The Birch Wood, 1970, The Maids of Wilko, 1979 and June Night, 2001) for this unusual film centered on the lonely wife of a small-town doctor who begins a relationship with a young, simple laborer while coming to terms with the loss of her two sons. In the principal role of Marta, Wajda casts one of Poland's most respected contemporary actresses, Krystyna Janda, who invests a personal, highly emotional theme in her decision to share her own grief at the loss of someone she loved. Thus, the static camera scrutinizes the actress as she sits in a dimly lit hotel room serenely describing the last days spent with her dying husband, cinematographer Edward Klosinski. Sweet Rush is a multi-layered reflection on death and the thin line separating life and death. -Note courtesy of the Karlovy Vary Film Festival
