Polish Audiovisual Publishers has released its third double album of the "Polish School of the Documentary" series edited by Tadeusz Sobolewski. This time, the recording contains four films by Maciej Drygas. The subsequent publication of the series, due out in January next year, shall present Marcel Łoziński's films.

The records are available in selected bookstores and on-line shops.

"A particularly vital question that they raise, concerns the relation between the historical and the universal. The reason why Drygas's films enjoyed success throughout Europe, was not a tremendous interest of international audiences in the picture of life under Communist rule in Poland. The universal, the commonly understood, is hidden right in the historical detail, in the non-simplified truth of life at a concrete time and place, one that is easily convertible into other people's experience of the human fate. This is what all Maciej Drygas's films talk about in their widest, and perhaps most important, sense."
