description

The author of the film is Antoni Milewski, who filmed the family-life events with a quarz zoom camera, bought in a Kielce photoshop. 

The film was made in 1974 during a family walk near the former Cracow Bishop’s Palace and a park in Kielce. Magda, Antoni’s niece, in order to make the film more interesting, runs and jumps around the courtyard of the palace, which has housed the National Museum since 1971.
The girl walks along Zamkowa Street to a park, crosses the bridge by the pond, and after leaving the park runs through Ogrodowa Street and stops on the bridge over the Silnica River. The last point of the walk is the Biruta café – Magda draws letters in the air, tries to read the word, and goes inside.
