Set in postwar Poland, Paweł Pawlikowski tells the story of Zula, a young singer with a strong personality, and Viktor, a pianist and musical director who immediately recognizes her talent. A passionate love affair blossoms between them, one that will be tested by political circumstances, their personal choices, and their constant travels between Eastern and Western Europe. Over the course of fifteen years, from Stalinist Poland to the Paris of jazz and artistic freedom, the two protagonists part ways and reunite, trapped in a relationship marked by passion, jealousy, and mutual dependence. They can’t live together, but it turns out to be just as impossible for them to live without each other. Inspired by his parents’ turbulent history, the director crafts a simple, black-and-white, and deeply melancholic love story, set against the backdrop of the Cold War and a Europe divided between East and West. In 2018, the film won the Best Director Award at the 71st Cannes Film Festival and received five European Film Academy Awards that same year. It was also nominated for three Oscars: Best Director, Best Foreign Language Film, and Best Cinematography. The screening will be followed by a discussion with the audience, with director Paweł Pawlikowski in attendance.

The screening will include subtitles in Greek and English.
