DESCRIPTION
The Ambassador & Me
Switzerland 2011 16’
Directed by: Jan Czarlewski
The film begins with a tennis match: the film-maker and his father (Ambassador of Poland in Belgium) exchange shots with a certain determination. Also in the making of the documentary the filmmaker and the diplomat try to prevail. The former is in search of a less formal image of the father, the latter tries to direct the film towards a more conventional form of documentary. L’Ambassadeur & Moi is the dramaturgic and symbolic staging of the eternal conflict between a man with a camera and his subject.
