Outstanding documentary that digs into the collective and personal trauma of forced population mixing, either through war or through political tactics. Filmed in stunning b/w it matches the furrowed faces to the soil and provides ample poetic and mystical imagery. The narratives around Jakub and the relfections on home(lessness), war, and conscience make for a sociologically sharp film: A close-up on life, really.
Jakub
(1992)
Excellent documentary. Full of humanism. Great soundtrack. Beautiful and gloomy.
