Kradzież

About This Movie

Kradzież is an interesting piece from 1981 that dives into the tensions within a student labor cooperative. The film has this gritty, almost claustrophobic atmosphere, which is pretty unique for a TV movie of its time. You get a lot of layered performances, especially from the lead, Paweł, as he navigates suspicions and mistrust among his peers. The pacing feels deliberate, creating a sense of unease that lingers throughout. It’s less about high drama and more about the subtleties of human interaction under pressure. Though the director remains unknown, the film has a certain rawness in its execution, maybe even a nostalgic quality for those who appreciate this era of Polish cinema.

Check for underground screenings; it surfaces occasionally.Might be difficult to find on mainstream platforms.An intriguing watch for fans of Eastern European cinema.
