Ognisko Polskie
Year of Production: 1937
Country: UK

If you’re a fan of old-timey love stories and classic piano, then this is the screening for you. The famous pianist Ignacy Jan Paderewski plays himself as a house guest to a Swedish baroness. At the house her youthful granddaughter is wooed by a smooth-talking charlatan. No amount of imploring by the other guests will make her see sense. The only thing that calms her down and sends her back into the arms of her true beloved is Paderewski’s recital of Moonlight Sonata.

Screening will be opened with a piano recital featuring Christine Stevenson.
