Sinopsis(1)

Mieczysław Kosz was a real person. Since infancy, the eventual piano prodigy was visually impaired. It was too late for eye surgery, and the boy lost his sight completely when sent by his mother to a facility for blind children. Nonetheless, with the aid of his huge pianistic talent, he found another way to communicate with society. Despite being classically trained as a musician, he felt drawn toward jazz, and by the end of the 1960s, he became a phenomenon of the jazz piano scene in both Poland and worldwide, compared to Bill Evans. Still in his twenties, Kosz won the hearts of audiences at home and abroad, successfully performed at jazz festivals, and recorded albums. However, all the artistic achievements came with a sense of loneliness in his personal life, manifesting itself in various and often bitter ways. (Camerimage)

español Otro retrato biográfico de un músico dotado y, casualmente, ciego. Un protagonista algo sobreactuado, flashbacks de la infancia, un enamoramiento platónico de una compañera cantante, un periodo de ahogo en el alcohol, etc. Lo hemos visto todo cientos de veces, y aquí no se presenta con ninguna originalidad ni ningún momento sorprendente o gratificante. Cuando no hay un contenido adecuado, se necesita una forma excepcional, y la película americana Ray tenía eso a otro nivel. ()
