The film proposes certain form of presenting immigrants - black and white images, central composition, didactic ways of showing people, long judgmental panoramas, semi-amateur shots and non-professional use of camera, low quality negatives with high contrast and shaking image. This is a conscious replica of the propaganda forms which were present in the movies made by soldiers or political functionaries in Europe in the 1930-50s.
Artur Zmijewski is an artist, filmmaker, curator and publicist. He curated the 7th Berlin Biennial in 2012. In 2005, he represented Poland at the 51st Venice Biennial. He was a participant in documenta 12 (2007) and documenta 14 (2017), Manifesta 5 (2004) and many other international exhibitions.
