Set in Poland in the year 1670, Netflix’s latest offering of the same name chronicles the account of Jan Pawel, a Polish nobleman.

She was more like the lost soul of a dead person, endlessly tormenting a man, as Jan Pawel stated on multiple occasions.

Nothing about the selection of films I’ve seen so far this year has indicated that the Festival has particularly picked up from the mediocrity into which it has settled. I’ve said it before, but since the Festival moved from its slot in August (where it battled it out with all the other...
