Innocent Sorcerers (Niewinni Czardzieje)

Beschrijving
A commentary on the lives of young people who grew up in the new, post-war communist Poland, Wajda chronicles a bohemian milieu of motor-scooters, love, sex and jazz with great vitality and humour. The rebellion the film depicts is social and moral, not political - and the film angered both Communist and Church authorities by showing its young characters explicit rejection of any ideological affinity.

With an outstanding cast headed by Tadeusz Lomnicki and including Polish superstar Zbigniew Cybulski and a young Roman Polanski in one of his earliest acting roles, this is a key film in its director's output - and one that has substantially grown in stature over time.
