Event information

Who was Jerzy Żuławski? How did he come to write ‘the lunar trilogy’ upon which On the Silver Globe is based? What was it like being directed by Andrzej Żuławski? How was an expansive sci-fi world fashioned on a shoe-string budget? Why was the film shut down? How was it resurrected? Why, after more than forty years, is On the Silver Globe finding its audience?

Through readings, photos, recordings and recollections, the strange saga of On the Silver Globe is reconstructed, with the help of cinematographer Andrzej Jaroszewicz, actor Grazyna Dylag (Ihezal), writer Adam Żuławski (Jerzy Żuławski’s grandson) and Daniel Bird (Curator of the exhibition & co-producer of the restoration).

This talk is part of Lunar Futurism an exhibition featuring some of the rare surviving remnants from Andrzej Żuławski’s notorious science fiction masterpiece On Silver Globe (1988).

Curated by Daniel Bird & The Horse Hospital, in association with Kinoteka Polish Film Festival.
