THE LUST KILLER
ZABÓJCA Z LUBIEŻNOŚCI
„The lust killer” is a film about human lust, perversion and hidden desires. It’s a film showing that the essence of being a human is crossing borders and that a quiet fascination by killers is common for many.. Two intriguing taboos – sex and death – meet in “The lust killer”. Does gloomy fascination that surrounds serial killers tell us something important about ourselves? The figure of Joachim Knychała, who murdered five women between 1975 and 1982, is used to focus our attention on those whose lives were marked by the infamous ‘vampire from Bytom’. Among them there is a former journalist, Edward Kozak, who, despite his old age, admits he has a variety of obsessions. The film about the ‘vampire’ offers him an opportunity to enter the limelight one more time.
