Nieistniejąca historia polskiej awangardy filmowej
A Non-Existent History of the Polish Film Avant-Garde

Summary/Abstract: The book review of Kamila Kuc “Visions of Avant-Garde Film. Polish Cinematic Experiments From Expressionism to Constructivism” (2016) is devoted to the beginnings of the Polish film avant-garde. The author of this volume proposes an original perspective, paying attention to phenomena that have not been yet described or that have been so far ignored. Her reflection focuses on the relationship between the film and other areas of the avant-garde. According to Andrzej Pitrus, the book is not only a valuable by filling the gap in the literature devoted to early Polish experimental cinema, but also an original proposal of an “alternative” cinema history.
