SAT JAN 21, 2023 4:00 PM HANDS UP! $8.00 (member) ; $13.00 (general admission) Los Feliz 3 | ‘Jerzy Skolimowski: An American Cinematheque Retrospective’ New restoration! Tickets are no longer on sale for this event.
ABOUT THE FILM: Featuring Jerzy Skolimowski’s final performance as his alter ego, Andrzej Leszczyc, HANDS UP! paints a surrealistic portrait of Polish society in the 1960’s and ruminates on the effects that Stalinism left on the country. A group of doctors in the grip of middle-aged conformity reunite in a railway cattle truck to a flood of bitter memories. Originally withheld by Polish censors in 1967, Skolimowski was able to complete the film in 1981 with new footage shot during the 1970’s. FORMAT: DCP DISTRIBUTOR: Wytwórnia Filmów Dokumentalnych i Fabularnych
