Papusza (15)

Biography, Drama

The rise and fall of the most distinguished Polish-Gypsy poetess Bronislawa Wajs, widely known as Papusza, and her relationship with her discoverer, writer Jerzy Ficowski.

The critical consensus

The narrative feels like an overstuffed quilt, but this selection of moments from the life of Bronislawa Wajs is gorgeous to behold.

A sombre but impressive production.

(*) Allan Hunter, Daily Express, 01/04/2016

This biopic of Romany poet Bronislawa Wajs features a little too much landscape and not enough life.
