Director's comment
FOUR NIGHTS WITH ANNA is an intimate film. It deals with an intimate, off-centre subject - a man sneaking into a woman's room at night while she's asleep. The stylistic approach to this subject is intimate as well: attention to detail, study of psychological motives lurking behind human behaviour, focus on the simple aspects of everyday existence. Basic, honest, nuanced and spare.My intent was to render full credibility to a seemingly outlandish story. To explore the rational in what on the surface would appear irrational, or perhaps even psychotic.
The story represents a basic need for contact with another human being, all the more desperate in a society that seems to be building more and more barriers between people. And the courage, sometimes verging on "insanity", required to bring them down. It is an eccentric story, unsettling, yet genuinely romantic. Told with enough distance to allow for irony and humour in the human drama. The tone of the film is nuanced, discrete and without affectation - stark, Polish reality treated with a naturalistic yet poetic approach. The structure is elliptical, with many subtle variations, and favours the suggestive over the explanatory.
