winter's night, summer's light

I’m here to spread patriotic propaganda, bc fuck this country if it’s not about culture and art.

AND IT IS ABOUT BOTH SO I AM WAVING WHITE AND RED FLAG.

Anyway.

There is this movie, The Peasants (Chłopi) directed by DK Welchman an Hugh Welchman. It is animated drama based on polish Nobel prize winning novel by Władysław Reymont. It tells a story about a cycle of life in polish countryside at the end of XIX century. AND I KNOW IT MAY SOUND BORING BUT—

It was animated to look as if it was painted. Many talented artist worked to make oil paintings that became key moments for animators to put together. This technique is inspired by Józef Chełmoński (polish painter) and some of his works can be seen in this movie as scenes. Below Babie Lato and Bociany.

You may be familiar with this technique of filmmaking from Loving Vincent (2017) which is a story about Vincent van Gogh’s life portrayed in his style of painting.

SO WHY AM I DOING THIS? Purely to maybe interest u all in checking out The Peasants.

I’m leaving you links to the trailer, PLEASE I BEG U CHECK IT OUT IT’S SO COOL!!!

Last thing i am leaving is spotify link to the song from soundtrack.
