THE LABYRINTH
“Four out of four stars. The Labyrinth is the most powerful film I’ve seen this year. Shocking, mesmerizing, unforgettable!” - Todd David Schwartz, CurveWireA documentary short about Marian Kolodziej, a Polish Catholic who was deported to Auschwitz at age 17 and arrived on one of the first transports. Kolodziej never spoke about his experience until after a stroke when he confronted his memories through art as part of his rehabilitation. The Labyrinth is a journey through his drawings and art installations that now fill the large basement of a church near Auschwitz.
