description

This collection of films was recorded by a married couple, Paweł and Joanna Morzyszek. Amateur films shot on 8 mm and Super 8 film reels document family life: celebrations, holidays, vacations, and travels. The archive covers materials from a 20-year period, from 1968 to 1988, which allow us to follow the growing up of Paweł and Joanna’s children – Ewa and Tomek – and their granddaughters – Agata and Anna.

The camera captures a karate fight – shadows of contestants in white kimonos, kicking and punching, appear in dark, unclear frames. Following sequence of frames shows a teenager – probably Tomek Miller – demonstrating various strikes.
