She was a dreamer, he was a thinker. He had a question, She was the answer. Two people, once met and created the poetry of life, inspired generations of artists in Europe, Roman Polanski was one of them.

Franciszka and Stefan Themerson lived and worked together over sixty years first in Poland, France, England. It’s well hidden treasure in the culture and art of the XX century. Though they don’t remember how they met, they made films together. Her lines often gave life to his imagination.
