Polonia who needs help with Polish Documentary [27]
You guys not knowing about who I am is the likely reason why you are so scared of me. Fear springing from ignorance, as RWE said. Let me further introduce myself.
My pseudonym is Alan Katanski. My family has had many experiences with real provocateurs and agents throughout the communist era and I can assure you that I'm not one.
One story from my grandpa was that the AK was heavily persecuted after the war by the PRL but somehow a FULLY UNIFORMED AK group stopped his train and asked the Jews on the train to come with them to the woods. The Jews were not killed or even harmed but the remaining Jews on the train were still scared. My father was detained and beaten for literally no reason by PRL police in the 70s as well.
I am Polish, my family studies its genealogy very well and everyone born before me was born in Poland -- I do have some viking roots though ;). My grandpa was a Syberiak
taken from his home in Lithuania, part of the commonwealth, when he was around 3 and deported to Siberia. The home is now unfortunately gone along with the medals and Golden Szabla my great-grandfather received as a cossack during WWI (my great-grandmother threw it down a well so at least the communist pigs couldn't get it.)
Another provocateur working hard to diminish the image of Poland. Who pays you? Never mind I know.
Nobody pays me to post here. That's the problem -- let me STRICTLY STATE first that my purpose coming here was not to beg for money -- all my expenses for this documentary will come out of pocket. I have no camera, memory cards, money for plane tickets, publisher or editing software (I can take care of the software aspects). What I do have are people I can talk to here, people I know within the Polish hooligan scene, and basic knowledge about filming and editing a documentary film.
