Plot
Jagna is a young woman determined to make her own way in a late 19th century Polish village, a hotbed of gossip and constant bickering, united rich and poor by adherence to colorful traditions and deep-rooted patriarchy. All scenes were shot on camera and then painted by over 100 artists. The film is made up of 40,000 paintings and they used 6 paints per second of footage.
Jagna tries to make her own way
Every man IS a pig, and so is every woman, in this adaptation of Wladyslaw Reymont’s Nobel Prize-winning novel about life in a 19th century village. A young woman, Jagna, is looking for gold when she marries a wealthy and much older widow. When she keeps seeing the man’s son next door, she gets into trouble with both father and son.
“I don’t need men’s help,” she says
“I’m sick of their help already.” The resplendent, heartbreaking live-action film was created from 40,000 frames of oil paintings. It features reworked Polish folk songs, compelling dialogue and raucous, energetic dance sequences. The detailed illustrations add contrast, light, color and emotion to the actors’ performances.
The husband-and-wife filmmaking team was on hand for the world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival
It was tough for the actors, who sometimes had to perform in front of green screens, but they persevered. DK dedicated the film to her supportive father and “all the women who make tough choices and embrace who they are.” The filmmakers explored the use of artificial intelligence, but felt it lacked a human touch, sensitivity and element of surprise. The composer, who did an incredible job of adapting Polish folk music to the film format, joked to the filmmakers: “I’ve spent more time with you than with my wife, so sorry if she doesn’t talk to you anymore.” The film took four years to make.
