From the opening images of fireworks exploding over downtown Warsaw, to the stunning final glimpse of Marczak’s main subject - Krzysztof Baginski (playing himself, as everyone does), who looks and moves like a young Baryshnikov - twirling between an endless row of stopped cars during the middle of a massive traffic jam, the film is high on the spirit of liberation. Unfolding like a plotless reality show that was shot by Emmanuel Lubezki, this lucid dream of a movie paints an unmoored portrait of a city in the throes of an orgastic reawakening. Movie Info Two art students roam the streets of Warsaw, exploring a city torn between its past and future. They carry all the concequences of bad luck spells as well, Revenge spell is the. Synopsis What does it mean to be awake in a world that seems satisfied to be asleep Kris and Michal push their experiences of life and love to a breaking point as they restlessly roam the city streets in search of answers, adrift in the euphoria and uncertainty of youth. ![]() A mesmeric, free-floating odyssey that wends its way through a hazy year in the molten lives of two Polish twentysomethings, this unclassifiable wonder obscures the divide between fiction and documentary until the distinction is ultimately irrelevant, using the raw material of real life to create a richer story of drift and becoming than “Song to Song” could ever manufacture from oblivious celebrities trying to find their characters between the notes.

It would be reductive and unfair to say that Michal Marczak’s “All These Sleepless Nights” is the film that Terrence Malick has been trying to make for the last 10 years, but it certainly feels that way while you’re watching it. look for death when you are wearied with sleepless nights and black magic.
