Four Nights With Anna

Seattle Premiere!

(Jerzy Skolimowski, 2008, Poland/France, 35mm, 87 min)
Skolimowski's first film after a seventeen year directing hiatus, Four Nights With Anna tells a small, intense, eerily one-sided love story. Leon, a crematorium worker, is in love with Anna. One night, he breaks in to clean her apartment while she sleeps. As he indulges his obsession by lingering among her belongings, he remembers a deeply troubling shared experience that casts new light on this already unsettling relationship. Skolimowski's expressionistic style elevate the film from a character study of an obsessive voyeur to the kind of art film that debuts in the Director's Fortnight at Cannes, heralding a triumphant comeback.

"A small gem, made with exceptional skill and command."Kenneth Turan, The Los Angeles Times
