Swiadectwo urodzenia (1961)

Swiadectwo urodzenia: Directed by Stanislaw Rózewicz. With Henryk Hryniewicz, Beata Barszczewska, Andrzej Banaszewski, Edward Mincer. Three episodes dealing with the harsh situation of children at the time of war. They stay at orphanages, wait for their parents to come back, help the soldiers, hide in the forests and do their best to survive.

“Stanislaw Rozewicz takes on the Nazi occupation as seen through the eyes of children in three short stories based on the prose of Tadeusz Rozewicz. A beautiful and sad story in times of war that transcends time and space. It is one the very few films prove that without showing gruesome images convincingly portray the misery of the war through the eyes of children. It tells a captivating and enchanting story of innocence, rebellion, and freedom representative of the opposing political systems. I liked the film and it won me over as much as possible, but in our case, it is probably not the kind of stories that remain etched in the memory forever especially the last segment. It is so Gripping that it goes to your heart and bone. Equally crucial in communicating the emotions of the characters and the meanings of the film is the musical score, itu0026#39;s leaves a layer of frost to the depressing scenes. The acting is also at the top level. The first kid is convincing and made a great impression, the last kid, so brilliant in the role of Jewish girl which is probably the highlight of this film. I really loved this movie because of the emotions that it gave and because I believe it represents something that is true. I also liked it because of the plot which shows us children who reap for the mistakes of the older ones. The success in this I believe that it came from the direction of Stanislaw Rozewicz and Cinematographer Stanislaw Loth who did a really good job.”
