Pornografia is a 2003 Polish-French film directed by Polish director Jan Jakub Kolski. It is based on the Witold Gombrowicz novel Pornografia (1960), set in Nazi occupied Poland during World War II.
The film is filled with many intricacies, touching such themes as the European society of the 1940s as a whole, conspiracy, guerrilla warfare, the Nazi invasion, murder, and suicide, as well as eroticism, guilt, and manipulation of youth by adults.
Its film score, by Zygmunt Konieczny, won the Georges Delerue Award at the Film Fest Gent festival in 2003. The film was released in selected cities across the United States.
