LET’S TRY TO JUMP INTO THE WELL

POLISH TITLE: SPRÓBUJMY SKOCZYĆ DO STUDNI

The best plays cannot be directed. We witness Krystian Lupa's struggle in rehearsals for Kafka's "The Trial" in a film that reveals his intimacy and demand for complete trust. Lupa urges actors and viewers to leap with him, to hit the bottom or dive into a depth, to embrace a fear of failure, with a hope for the miracle of the Theater.
