- Summary:
- Witold Gombrowicz (1904-1969), author and playwright, was one of the greatest author of the 20th century. Some writers never had a "legend" surrouding them, whereas others achieved to create one. Gombrowicz built for himself an image of an abnormal character, and imposed with persuasion his eccentric despotism to his acquaintances. The film traces his path from Poland to Argentina, then France, his life inevitably linked to his work.Witold Gombrowicz (1904-1969), écrivain et auteur dramatique, reconnu comme un des plus grands auteurs du XXè siècle. Certains écrivains n'ont jamais eu de "légende", d'autres ont su s'en créer une. Le despotisme excentrique que Gombrowicz put imposer à son entourage avec une grande force de suggestion et de persuasion traduit le personnage hors normes qu'il s'était fabriqué.Le film retrace sa trajectoire de Pologne en Argentine, puis en France, une vie indissolublement liée à une œuvre.
