Zapraszamy na Film “Ostatni Górale”

Związek Podhalan w Kanadzie serdecznie wszystkich zapraszamy na Film “Ostatni Górale” w Cine Starz Mississauga (377 Burnhamthorpe Rd. E) o godz. 15:00, 24 Marca 2019.

“Ostatni Górale” to film dokumentalny przedstawiający polską kulturę góralską w sposób piękny i liryczny – ale tak jak jeszcze nikt tego nie dokonał. Podhalańskie krajobrazy pokazane w rozdzielczości 4K i w wysokim klatkażu dają niespotykane wrażenie realizmu. Film przedstawia portrety kilku górali, którzy wykonują te same zawody, które zajmowały ich przodków na przestrzeni minionych stuleci. Ludzi, których charakter kształtuje się w konfrontacji z naturą – niedostępnymi górami, zmianami pogody i zwierzętami.

Bilety $20 od osoby / dzieci poniżej 12 lat $10

The Polish Highlanders Association is delighted to present a screening of the film “The Gorals – Highlanders of Carpathia”.

The documentary film is set in Podhale – the mountainous region of Poland inhabited by Polish Highlanders. This ethnic group is one of the most distinct in Europe, with their own unmistakable style of dress, economic trade, construction, culture and folklore. The film tells the stories of four men, each carrying out age-old, traditional professions such as wheelwright, lumberjack and bagpipe constructor. It seeks answers to the current and pressing question of how these people manage to reconcile their Highland culture with the modern world.

The Gorals (Górale) are no strangers to Canada, and in particular Ontario where many reside around Toronto, Mississauga and Brampton and have established organizations such as The Polish Highlanders Association of Canada (celebrating its 40th year) to help maintain their connection to their unique folk culture of song, dance, art, architecture and language.

Director Filip Luft’s film beautifully captures Polish highlanders as they perform the same professions their ancestors did over the past several centuries. From shepherds to craftsmen, characters are shaped when confronted with nature, inaccessible mountains, weather changes and animals. The Tatra mountains become more than just a silent observer of our heroes. Around the mountains, everything changes and they stand and maintain, unshaken.
