REVIEW: ‘Ida’ at the Art Theatre Is Nothing Short of a Masterpiece

Avatar photo by Brian Addison June 19, 2014

Pawel Pawlikowski’s Ida, if anything, is far more of a painting than a film—and despite the heavy amount of history inferred, Ida ultimately isn’t a film about Poland or the Holocaust or European Judaism or Stalinism. It’s about identity—and just how rocky, unstable and viciously tormenting identity is and can be when faced with the past.
