SYNOPIS
Partners:
A girl overwhelmed by the monotony of life escapes to the reality of a 1980s music video. Surrounded by the urban scenery and neon lights glowing in the dark, mysterious silhouettes are maniacally repeating the same actions. Trapped in the somber cycle they are waiting for her move. Will she succeed in finding the rhythm of the daily struggles and breathe life into a world mired in routine?

AGNIESZKA KOTULSKA
Graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Katowice where she obtained her diploma in the animation studio. She also graduated in cultural studies from the University of Silesia, writing her diploma thesis on Polish animated films. Inspired by the achievements of the Polish School of Animation and the Polish School of Posters, she uses the cut-out technique in her works. Born in the 1980s she has a weakness for kitschy music videos and catchy melodies. Her film “Cosmic Routine”, produced by Studio Munka, is a reflection of those inspirations and further exploration of the art of cutout animation.
