Innocent Sorcerers | Andrzej Wajda | 1960 | 84 min.
He (T. Łomnicki) is a young sports doctor who plays jazz after hours. She (K. Stypułkowska) is a high school student who goes to the jazz club. They meet to play a male/female game for one night. They take pseudonyms (Basil and Pelagia), which seems to be like masks hiding their sensitivity. In fact, they are the title “innocent sorcerers” who try to “poison” their hope for love – as is stated in the quotation from Dziady, which was an inspiration for the filmmakers, when they’ve created the title. Protagonists agree on the scenario of their date: “a glass of vodka, first kiss, intelligent conversation and a bed, or rather a couch”. Then they move on to the “undress” game. Who will win and who will lose in the game? Who will be able to pretend indifference for the longest time?
