SATI
A film reminiscence about Piotr Morawski, a conqueror of six eight-thousanders and a participant of the first in history winter expedition to Shishapangma who died in the Himalayas, at the slope of Dhaulagiri, on 8 April 2009. His story is reported by the mountaineer’s wife, Olga, full of both grief and respect for her husband’s passion. The meetings with Olga Morawska, edited in the film, occurred over a period of a few months following her husband’s death. The first one was just a month after the accident.

Bartłomiej Świderski »
na początku chciał zajmować się produkcja filmową. Ukończył nawet studia w tym kierunku na Wydziale Radia i Telewizji Uniwersytetu Śląskiego. Jednak jego zamiłowanie do obserwowania rzeczywistości i chęć jej opisywania, pokrzyyżowało mu plany zostania Producentem. Podjął studia na Wydziale Reżyserii UŚ, a także studiował w Mistrzowskiej Szkole Reżyserii Filmowej Andrzeja Wajdy. Obecnie Bartek ma na swoim koncie realizację kilkunastu filmów krótkometrażowych, między innymi ”37 klatka” oraz “Karteczka”. Pisał scenariusze oraz reżyserował spoty reklamowe, programy telewizyjne, a także teledyski. Najbardziej ciągnie go jednak do dokumentu. Film "Sati" jest jego dokumentalnym debiutem.
