Our take
Talk about resourceful! Jerzy Skolimowski (EO) created his ice-cool debut feature—praised by Jean-Luc Godard, no less—by threading together reels from his student exercises while playing the main role. This surreal day-in-the-life of a student in postwar Poland is a feat of technical innovation.
