LEFT SIDE OF THE FACE
POLISH TITLE: LEWA POŁOWA TWARZY
The film 'Left Side of the Face’ follows photographer Leszek Krutulski as he creates an interesting artistic project. Travelling the length and breadth of Poland, he invites people (of all ages, races, nationalities, outlooks on life and sexual orientations) to an impromptu photographic studio. If they agree, he then takes a photo of the left side of their face. He will photograph the right side in ten years time.
