Jacek Borcuch’s film path is showing his own, everlasting search, rooted simply in human existence. First was acting, a certain experience replaced by philosophy – a space devoted to widening perception, understanding and experimenting faculties. Music is present from his early childhood (piano) – from classical education at the beginning to highly contemporary sounds sometime later. Direction, the following step, was a logical consequence of the previous paths. This is the area that enables him to encompass all his strengths, all kinds of arts he mastered. It is the opportunity to tell his own story and at the same time introduce it to wider audiences, into so- called impartial ground – this is something that engages him most.
Jacek Borcuch has written and directed four feature films including TuLIPS and Caulliflowerr. His third film All That I Love was a breakout success. It has won numerous prizes at international festivals, has been shown in cinemas in more than fifteen countries, and has been Poland’s official Oscar® entry in 2011. His latest film Lasting will have the world premiere in World Dramatic Competition at 2013 SUNDANCE Film Festival.
