Two young men from the provinces, having completed their military service, hitch a ride back to their homes. During the course of their journey, quite by chance in a gas station, they become embroiled in a fight during which one of them is killed. The death of his friend causes the other young man to change his life with the help of a strong, independent woman lorry driver. During this time, he observes the efforts of the police to discover the identity of his dead friend.
Over the years of 1864 through 1876, Stanisław Chlebowski served Sultan Abdülaziz in Istanbul as his court painter. As it was, Abdülaziz disposed of considerable artistic talents of his own, and he actively involved himself in Chlebowski’s creative process, suggesting ideas for compositions –such as ballistic pieces praising the victories of Turkish arms.
While Paula Rego belatedly was recognised as one of the leading feminist pioneers of her age, little has been written about her exploration of fluid sexuality. Indeed the current of sado-masochism in her drawings and paintings, has tended to encourage an understanding as a classic clash between the patriarchy and exploited women.
