Well grounded short. A cooking pot of emotions.
FreddyMoyano17 July 2020
Honesty and love can typically hold hands. But what if fear interrupts the party to lead into confusion, pity or hate? Well, sometimes harder and truer love can stem from such a 'cooking pot-full-of-feelings' as the one we have here. It all is well conveyed in Rudy (Red).

The characters are neatly polished, even more if we keep in mind the short format (under 30 minutes) of this production. Things flow as if we were looking at a well constructed pilot episode of a punch-on-the-table promising series. Miroslaw Zbrojewicz delivers a solid performance. But this is a puzzle of emotions wherein Izabela Baran's piece progressively fits to the point of owning every scene with a brilliant performance as well.

Hard to believe this is a first time project for talented filmmaker, Karina Wegielek--such a great cinematographer. Spoilers aside, this tape leaves one hoping for a continuation, for more roller coasting emotions. Will there be one? Well done, Poland.

RUDY - A Complex Masterpiece
BlackbirdFilmFest5 July 2021
Karina Wegielek's short film, RUDY (RED), is simply a masterpiece in subtle and complex relationships. Within just a short amount of time, RUDY is able to take the audience through a full spectrum of emotions, from loss to lust, grief and recovery. Director Karina Wegielek's cinematic storytelling power is unmatched and stands as a true testament to her as a filmmaker. The casting is spot on and the performances from Izabela Baran (Judyta) and Miroslaw Zbrojewicz (Zbigniew) are incredible - allowing the viewer to immediately enter into the narrative of the film. Excellent all around and an absolute MUST WATCH!
