The Prisoner
A simple story without words. It begins in Morse code tapped out on a radiator. 'I am Jurek Orlowski , doing time for burglary.' Sounds, pictures and music take over in this new 35mm film by award-winning Polish film-maker Bogdan Dziworski.
Jurek is set free and takes up his old life again. He has no arms. Yet he draws, runs and swims. It is as though he experiences everything for the first time. He falls in love with the circus juggler. He keeps drawing. Then one day the drawing goes wrong. Editor Caroline Pick
An ASA/Television History Workshop production for BBCtv 0 CEEFAX SUBTITLES
