White Coal

Përshkrimi

A mound of coal, black dust dissipating into the air, a stone statue of a worker: These are the opening images of White Coal. Loosely inspired by Hermann Melville’s “The Confidence Man”, the story of a blind passenger aboard a Mississippi steamboat, the first thread of White Coal follows the journey of a Polish coal transport ship and a male figure dressed as in silent movies of the proletarian heyday.
