Summary: Titus & Flagg Taylor continue our series on Polish movies--& more broadly, movies about totalitarianism in Europe--turning to Pawel Pawlikowski, now at the top of his fame--nominated for the Oscars, a winner in Cannes, & finally making movies about his native Poland. We start with Ida, a movie about a young woman in the Poland of 1962, about to take her vows as a nun, who first has to learn about her family & their fate.
