THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM

tom tomaszewski

Download (PDF, 371KB)

It was a hot July night in 2018 when my high school friend Anna
and I sat down in the Rialto movie theater in Poznan, Poland. This
historic theater has been through a lot since it was built in 1937
– it survived the war, bore witness to the rise of communism and
oppression, and later became an art house movie theater. So the
atmosphere for watching the film Cold War by Pawel Pawlikowski
could not have been more fitting.
