He also served on the national Senate from 1989-91. [Listener: Jacek Petrycki] TRANSCRIPT: I found Łódź to be a horrible city, totally unappealing. Although actually, we didn't really have anything to do with Łódź because the building in which the film school was housed was the former residence of one of Łódź's industrialists and was walled off. We lived there, ate there and had our classes there, so there was no need to leave that building and rarely did so. My contact with the real Łódź took place a good 20 years or more later when I made 'The Promised Land'. That was my first real meeting with Łódź. Here, after Kraków, there was nothing. There was only a museum in Łódź which was interesting because we were able to see works there by Strzemiński before they were removed and the gallery which he'd set up there before the war, and a few old paintings. And that was it, except perhaps for Dejmek's theatre.
