In 1987, colour slides were found in a second hand book store in Vienna which turned out to be a collections of photographs taken in the Lodz ghetto by the Nazis' chief accountant. Walter Genewein boosted productivity in the ghetto while keeping costs down, a policy which led to the Lodz ghetto surviving much longer than any other in Poland. He recorded what he considered to be the subhuman aspect of the Jewish workers and he was concerned only with the technical quality of his photos. Director Dariusz Jabłoński's prize-winning film uses the photographs in a different way. He recreates for us the suffering of inmates, giving a compassionate picture of that it was like to be trapped in the ghetto. (Storyville)

What is reality? Who holds the key to truth-humans or our own technological creations? Wojciech Bruszewski, a rebellious force in the realm of cinema, a pioneer in the global video art movement, a relentless researcher, and an intrepid art experimenter, embarks on a journey beyond conventional boundaries to explore cognition and pioneer breakthroughs in language, sound, imagery, and cutting-edge technologies. Through preserved films, archival recordings, photographs, and reactivated devices, we are not only introduced to his endeavors but also encouraged to partake in them firsthand. Serving as our guides into Bruszewski's mesmerizing universe are the man himself and a select group of accomplished contemporary art historians, scholars, artists, media experts, designers, and avant-garde figures in the realm of AI, all of whom contribute to his reimagining.
