Bemowo Pictures

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bemowo Pictures is an amateur movie group found in 2004 in Warsaw (Poland) by five students interested in WWII, Michal Kubicki, Rafal Olbromski, Andrzej Chec, Grzegorz Wojnarowski and Pawel Blados. Cooperation of these young amateur movie enthusiasts led them to making their first movie called "The Last Flight" (Polish: "Ostatni Lot") with guest appearance made by Rafal Tomkowiak, who subsequently joined the group along with Krzysztof Szymanski, Tomasz Kapturkiewicz and the cameraman Piotr Lepeta.

In spring of 2005 the new short film , "Wintern", which employed the convention of western-movie genre, came into existence. In Summer of 2005 the group set about making the biggest project so far - "Supermarket Garden", feature-length war movie with the English dialogs scenario, special effects, produced with much better filming equipment in better quality and with the independent cameraman. The crew also constructed the german Tiger Tank used in the last scenes.

Bemowo Pictures organised so far three exhibitions of their film-art at Warsaw University of Technology. The last one, that took place in November 2006 when the "Supermarket Garden" was shown for the first time. The film was enthusiastically received by the audience because of it's original and unique sense of humour based on absurd and paranoia. In the meantime of bigger production Bemowo Pictures are creating short movies that require less time to prepare, but still base on humor.

In December 2005 group displayed their movies at GAPA (December Academic Artistic Festival) organized by Warsaw University of Technology, at which "Wintern" took 1st place.
