Cinema Has Helped Change Europe, And It Can Do So Again: Agnieszka Holland

The maker of Oscar nominees Angry Harvest, Europa Europa, and In Darkness writes: “We film-makers are faced with the question of whether we can have a real impact on our world and how we go about doing that. If reality looks like bad fiction and if real characters are like caricatures, then our movies have to reinvent reality. In short: we should leave politicians by the wayside and let artists invent the future. Responsibility today means putting our imaginations to work.” – The Guardian
