Describing Amateur Short Film Making. “Eulalia” as an Ekphrasis of the Short Movie “Napad na stacji” (“Assault at the Station”)

Summary/Abstract: The text attempts at an interpretation of Miron Białoszewski’s prose “Eulalia”. The title heroine is a doll, a mannequin, which Białoszewski’s friend Adriana Buraczewska made of paper mass and colourfull pieces of cloth. Eulalia appears in Białoszewski’s few movies, i.e. short silent films produced in Białoszewski’s flat in Warsaw district of Żoliborz. The story in question is the only one in Ada and Roman Klewin’s creativity, which the poet exclusively devoted to filming. Starting from the meaning of the heroine (“Eulalia” is the one who is distinguished as having the values of a speaker), the author tries to prove that the piece is an ekphrasis of a silent movie. Exploring the rich ekphrasis-researching tools, the author choose the approach proposed by Jan Elsner. It allows for an examination of the relationship between the word and the picture as well as adds the problems of movie and look into its considerations.
