The painting Untitled (from the movie „The Beater”) refers to the theme of the Holocaust often recurring in Sasnal’s work. It was inspired by a frame from the movie The Beater (1963, directed by Czesław Petelski and Ewa Petelska, written by Roman Bratny). The movie tells a story about a group of Hungarian Jews who managed to escape from trains taking them to an extermination camp and who fall in a forest in a “hunting” organized by the Nazis during the World War II.
