Interview with jarek Kupsc- Director/Writer/Actor in The Reflecting Pool
All of Jarek’s films are infused with a political message. For example, his film Recoil dealt with symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder when a Vietnam veteran encounters a veteran from Bosnia.
Aware that the 9/11 Truth movement is reaching critical mass, Jarek hoped he could contribute to its growth by creating a narrative film that laymen would enjoy watching. It is essentially a “buddy film” involving two men--one a very reluctant skeptic assigned to do the story, and the other a fanatic, the father of a 9/11 victim, devoting his life to tracking down the killers and bringing them to justice. “What does it take to go after the truth?” and “How hard is it to convince the public?” are two of the big questions the film raises. Jarek likes ambiguous endings that don’t tie up neatly and point to a “happily ever after” conclusion. The film ends more on a “what are these people going to do, now?” note, which is intended to strike a chord in the public and help motivate them, thus contributing to reaching a critical tipping point in awareness.
Jarek Kupsc and Joseph Culp, the writer/director/producer/principle characters in The Reflecting Pool will be introducing the film and speaking afterwards at special preview screenings at the 9/11 Truth Film Festival--at 7:30 p.m. Sept. 10th and 4:50 p.m. Sept. 11th.
