Pharmacy
3m
In 1930, Stefan and Franciszka Themerson made a controversial, black and white, silent, 35mm film in Warsaw. ‘Apteka’ was the first “moving photogram” and an innovation in experimental cinema. It disappeared during the German occupation of Poland. Bruce Checefsky’s extraordinary film ‘Pharmacy’ is based on the surviving notes, letters and stills from the original film and published reviews from Czas, Wiaomosci Literackic Polski Zbtgina, Swiatowid, Pion and Kuriet Polski.
