„Lekcja Patriotyzmu” – Filip Jacobson

DE/PL, 2016

 

Filip Jacobson’s film presents a competition of patriotic songs at a Polish primary school. „Patriotic Lesson“ is edited in a calm manner and filmed in black-and-white stylistics. It lets us be the observer of the performing kids, the proud parents, and the work of the specially-called jury during this event – always in a kind of reserved but slightly ironic way.

We become silent witnesses of a seemingly ludicrous event that is regional but can be transferred into a global context. We have to reflect upon and discuss the use and abuse of kids for values they can´t understand, and about the sense and nonsense of patriotism. Therefore „Patriotic Lesson“ is giving the right cinematic impulse.
