Testament 1970

Directed by Józef Gębski

The film devoted to Tadeusz Borowski's work has the form of a multi-part suite consisting of very short episodes, in which the fragments and poems read by Borowski are accompanied by photographs from the Auschwitz camp, reproductions of Andrzej Wróblewski's paintings, film archival and contemporary photographs. He presents Borowski's work in an extremely emotional way in the context of the artist's stay in the concentration camp, showing the influence of this experience on Borowski's writing and on the vision of the fate of his generation.
