Life / The first Polish movie I watched (I am Chinese). [24]
Believe it or not, there's actually a Polish-Chinese film - Extras/Statyści (2006), directed by Michał Kwieciński.
It's a pretty standard-issue romantic comedy for the most part, but at least the setting is original - it's about a Chinese film crew filming in Poland, and hiring a load of Polish extras for background roles. The reason they're in Poland is because the film is a tragedy and they think Poles look uniquely miserable, which is just one of many stereotypes that fly in both directions.
