Beschreibung:
The purpose of this article is to provide a general overview of the work of Wanda Jakubowska (1907-98), the first Polish, female film director to gain national and international recognition. Her career spanned over 50 years in which she directed 14 full-length feature films, thus being the longest working film director in the history of Polish cinema. She was also one of the highest profile filmmakers to join the Polish communist party after the Second World War and in subsequent years represented the "party line" among her fellow filmmakers, and lobbied the party on behalf of the cinema industry. The article looks at style, ideology and the most important themes of Jakubowska's work. Its focus is on her films about concentration camps and about contemporary Pland. The article also attempts to establish whether and to what degree Jakubowska was a feminist.
