Death Of Polish Film Director

Polish art-house film director Andrzej Zulawski died on 17th February, aged 75 after a long battle with cancer, according to the Polish Filmmakers Association. He was "a very original artist, sometimes controversial but always true to himself," association president Jacek Bromski told Polish broadcaster Polsat. Born in occupied Poland in 1940, Zulawski left for Paris at the age of five with his parents and later studied at the Sorbonne. He is survived by three children, including a son with French actress and ex-partner Sophie Marceau. It's a huge loss for Polish and world cinema and his films are considered cinema classics, "The Third Part of the Night" (1971), "The Devil" (1972) and last film "Cosmos" (2015).
