Art is worthless in the face of politics, Reivew on Camera Buff

This is one of the classic works of the Polish film master Kieslowski, and the director of the upper Tricks is called the successor of "Kislowski", so before I saw this movie, I was with great admiration. But maybe it's because I don't like to read topics related to politics, so I'm still quite disappointed. Sometimes I wonder if the artists in the Central and Eastern European countries who get more acclaim are getting more acclaim because their expressions are more in line with the strong values of the developed capitalist countries?

The film tells the story of a buyer with a stable job and a happy family who bought an 8mm camera in order to record his newborn daughter. Since then, he has been obsessed with photography, but it has caused his wife and children to separate and caused trouble because of the documentary filmed for the factory. After making a choice, he destroyed the new film negative that might lead to a worse form, and pointed the camera at himself, recalling himself in confusion. The original purpose when the camera was bought.

Cinema is the supreme art, who said that? -- Lenin. But obviously the film master Kishlowski feels that is not the case. Politics is still the overriding force, and art wants to break out of the ground? Unless there is a fertile land, but is that land really reserved for art? Maybe it's just politics.
