Kiedy świat staje się błękitem. Blue Dereka Jarmana jako artystyczny i osobisty manifest twórcy
When reality comes into blue. Derek Jarman’s movie as an artistic and private manifest

Summary/Abstract: Blue (1993), the last film by Derek Jarman, had been released only four months before the director’s death, caused by AIDS‑related diseases. It is a very unique kind of private confession. At the end of his life, Derek Jarman was getting blind and in some moment the only that he could see was blue (a kind of blue nothing). His last movie reproduces this experience and at the same time makes viewers to feel reality in the similar way, because the only thing that we see is a blue screen. So, on the other hand, Blue is a very interesting project from the theoretical point of view. It is not a typical documentary; it is not even a typical movie. In my thesis I try to analyze Blue from few different perspectives: as an unique audiovisual project, a manifest of artistic freedom and independence and as a deeply poignant confession of a dying man.
