Description

„Iskry w Popiele” is a attempt to tell a turbulent history of Silesia with a help of the sound of a guitar.  Wojciech Ciuraj had invited a few renown Silesian artists such as Józef Skrzek of SBB or a very popular actor Marian Dziedziel who provided his voice to narrate certain lyrics on it. “Iskry w Popiele” is the first part of a triptych created to commemorate a centenary of three  Silesian Uprisings and had its premiere on the 100th anniversary of the first Uprising.
