This documentary film captures the
evolving rhythm and urban structure
of Łódź over an eight-month period.
The visual narrative is complemented
by an auditory commentary composed
of excerpts from “The Composition
of Space: Calculations of Time-Space Rhythm,” a seminal work by avant-garde artists Katarzyna Kobro and Władysław Strzemiński.
The vocal narration is skillfully rendered by Łódź inhabitants, encountered and recorded amidst the city’s streets. Root- ed in Kobro and Strzemiński’s theory of rhythmic proportions, the film intricately weaves together the synchronization
of cityscape visuals, architectural ca- dence, and a mantra-like vocal backdrop provided by diverse Łódź denizens, all captured within public spaces.
