Coming of age story of four girls living in the same poor district of Warsaw just before the outbreak of World War One.

After her husband's death, Hanna Szendroy, the former primadonna, is caught in the claws of the real estate mafia. She looses her lavish home and ends up homeless at the Keleti train station. When she returns to her house, now full of homeless people moved in by the real estate mafia, an unexpected relationship brings hope into her life again.

1973 Polish film by Jan Rybkowski

"Budapest Tales" is about a group of people (consisting of Szabo regular Andras Balint along with Ildiko Bansagi and Karoly Kovacs) who find a broken down tram while trying to go to the city. The people band together and try to get the tram back on the train tracks and head towards the city. Along this journey the passengers encounter many people who join them on the tram. What started out as only a handful of people has now turned into a small village. As the people travel on to the city each person takes on certain roles and through the course of time these roles will change. Some people fall in love, others out of love, and a few even die. But life goes on. The people keep the tram going hoping to reach Budapest.

A short making-of from the set of Kieslowski's feature film "Blizna", which uses a lot the word "Action!" and the slate.

Witold Leszczynski用这部黑白影片开启了80年代波兰魔幻写实主义电影的大门。
"Form is much more important than content," the director often said. Indeed each story wrote by Leszczynski was directed with incomparable care. The title that put the director's name on the map of Polish film history was Matthew's Days (1967), an intimate tale adapted from the prose by Norwegian writer Tarjei Vesaas. The feature received several awards, notably the Grand Prix at the Cannes International Youth Film Festival, Grand Prix at Valladolid and Best Film at Colombo.
Born in 1933, Leszczynski graduated from the Lódz Film School. After Matthew's Days he wrote and directed Personal Search (1972) and Recollections (1977). In 1981, he directed Konopielka, a film based on the book by Edward Redlinski, with an unforgettable role for Krzysztof Majchrzak. The film picked up awards at the 1984 Gdynia Polish Film Festival.
Two years later Leszczynski was awarded the Grand Prix at Gdynia for his new piece, Siekierezada, which also won the FIPRESCI and INTERFILM prizes at the 1987 Berlinale. In 1993, Leszczynski directed Kolos followed a year later by Requiem, a film similar in style to Matthew's Days.
