OPIS WYDARZENIA
KOŃ – concert for animated films
Koń (A Horse) is an artistic entity founded by guitarist Sławomir Szudrowicz (Something Like Elvis, Dobre Bo Dobre, Selina Martin, 5G), drummer Asia Glubiak (Panieneczki, Limboski, Barbara Wrońska), saxophonist Michał Fetler (Jazzband Młynarski Masecki, Polmuz, Fanfara Avantura) and keyboard and rave gale virtuoso Jakub Królikowski. The formal assumptions of the band oscillate somewhere around country and western style, blues, alternative music, modern jazz and psytrance. „Fusion!” – one might say! By no means, after all, fusion is associated with a bass hanging under one’s chin and Koń doesn’t play any bass, because the bass is abandoned nowadays. However, there is a bass saxophone, which 90% of you have presumably never seen before. In 2022, the band released their debut album (although the members are definitely not debutants) that received very enthusiastic reviews. It is also worth saying that Koń is mostly a concert animal.

Experimental abstract music video with the music of Danish musician Sofie Birch. It is a game between abstraction and figurativeness, which aims to be the best accompany to the music using the cinematic means of expression.
Airborne, Andrzej Jobczyk, Polska, 2021, 7’36’’
“Airborne” is a surreal animation that connects the world of flying machines with the kingdom of flora and fauna. Engrossed in the fight, an airplane pilot loses his target which leads to tragedy. The plane crashes into the crown of a tree. The tragic ending turns out to open a new stage in history. At the scene of the accident a new life is awakened and now it has to solve the mystery of its origin. Airborne is a story about passion, its roots and what we have to lose to be born again.
Roz-poznanie, Przemysław Świda, Poland, 2020, 6’
A suit, hat and a briefcase – the protagonist of the animation looks like a representative of the yuppie generation or a corporation employee. This time, however, he has no documents in his briefcase, but other versions of himself and, instead of a business trip, he goes on a crazy run within his own consciousness. Is the man running away from himself or is he trying to chase himself? What will happen when the protagonist’s egos finally meet?
