	Letter from Slawomir Rapala
		As for other Polish science fiction, I have before recommended Jacek Dukaj who is an up and coming writer, already labeled by many as the next Lem.
		Dukaj writes a lot of different things, from cyberpunk to alternate history — one of his books is even based in a world where different laws of physics apply.
		Dukaj achieves an understanding of the order of the world and social existence through the marriage of physics and philosophy which, albeit often difficult to grasp, makes the reader unable to put his books away.

	Max Underground - Tomek Baginski on 'The Cathedral'
		This non-commercial film is the result of the collaboration between two highly talented individuals: Polish science fiction writer Jacek Dukaj, author of the original "Cathedral" story, and Tomek Bagiñski, an accomplished CG artist with a strong background in painting and architecture.
		Working together with Jacek Dukaj on adapting the story for short-film production, Tomek spent 14 months on this project, switching through all the different hats of the CG trade and using Max as his 3D program of choice.

	Montreal Mirror - Reeling: Film News
		Curated (though that might be too classy a word, come to think of it) by Mike Judge (Beavis and Butt-Head, Office Space) and Oscar-nominated animator Don Hertzfeldt, the mini-fest has an entirely wacky collection of shorts that are both wondrous and nutty.
		One of my favourites here was easily The Cathedral, Jacek Dukaj’s marvellous film that features some utterly gorgeous images, most of which are so complex they defy description.
		But the biggest surprise here is Mars and Beyond, billed as “a history of astronomy and thoughts about life on other planets.” As I screened this I assumed it was a bit of retro fun, but indeed it’s an actual clip from a ’57 TV broadcast that was produced by Walt Disney.

	Media Nugget: March 2001
		And thanks to the strong presence of Polish Catholicism, the devil has flourished in folklore and literature ever since.
		From the mischievous imp wearing a red jockey-cap in Slawomir Mrozek's "Co-existence" to the awesome power behind Jacek Dukaj's futuristic "The Golden Galley" (written when he was only fifteen), the visions of the devil presented here are as varied as they are fantastic.
		Set in contemporary Jerusalem, this tragic love story tells how the insular, misogynistic fundamentalism of ultra-orthodox Chasidism subjugates and suffocates the lives of two sisters.
