The life of writer Bruno Schulz straddled three cultures – Polish, Jewish and German – and this magic concoction inspired the creation of literary works of unparalleled quality. Wojciech J. Has has succeeded in bringing Schulz's short stories to the screen and has endowed the film with the same poetic and oneiric nature inhabiting the writer’s exquisite books.
