Dorota Kędzierzawska's "Another World" in Marcin Radomski's monograph is made familiar. Marcin Radomski thoughtfully and tenderly followed the entire career of the outstanding director. He writes that Kędzierzawska portrays "the world and man". The same thing has been successfully achieved in this publication. A portrait of the director, a portrait of her world.”
