Kasia adamik biography of mahatma

Amok is a dark psychological neo-noir based on a true murder mystery that happened in Poland in the early years 2000. A man was convinced of murder based on a book of fiction he published years later and that fell in the lap of an obsessive Police Inspector.
Awarded with the Silver Bear Afred Bauer Price at the Berlinale, The film is set in a remote mountainous region in south-western Poland, where an older woman, Janina Duszejko, witnesses the mysterious death of several hunters. She is convinced she knows who the murderer is, but nobody believes her story.
The film tells the story of Janosik, a legendary "Central European Robin Hood", based on real XVIII century documents and on a romantic legend, operating with a very subjective, original lyricism: the hero is tragic and at the same time very contemporary. Burned by communing with cruelty of war, he comes back to become the leader of a gang.
Jacek, an ex soccer player, finds himself out of luck and homeless at the Warsaw Central Station. With a group of his homeless peers he decides to form a team and travel to the Homeless Soccer World Championship. Audience Award at the Gdynia Film Festival and Best Polish Film at the Camerimage Film Festival.
