The scene itself is only a few minutes long loop. But it aroused great emotions. Anna Senyuk, 28, plays a wife who cheats on her husband in this film. In the bed scene, her film partner is Tadeusz Borowski. He is her lover and she takes off her clothes in front of him.
This scene, which is not uncommon in movies today, stimulated the imagination of Poles so much that some people started making money from it. These were “private owners” who sold selected prints from film frames in the markets. There was no shortage of volunteers, and Anna Senyuk was soon hailed as a sex icon.
You can learn a lot about the behind-the-scenes of the recordings from the book “Anna Senyuk. I am an extraordinary woman”, which was released in 2016. Its author is Magdalena Malika Wibic, the daughter of the actress.
“I was the first Polish actress to show her breasts,” she wrote in her interview.
“It paved the way for hundreds of Polish breasts on their way to the big screen,” he adds. “She played a wife who is cheating on her husband. She is very unhappy in her relationship and only opens up to her lover. It had to be shown somehow, so the nude bust was a justified artistic device,” Anna Senyuk explains in the book. “This scene was also a huge challenge for the actress. At the time of filming, she was planning her wedding.
This is how it was mentioned in the book:
Anna Senyuk told her daughter: “It was unfortunate that when Ekran published a report on this film with some photos of me, I had an official meeting with my future in-laws in an elegant restaurant.” “Everything was very civilized until we reached the locker room. There, the very cheerful Irenius Eredinsky saw me, pointed his finger at me, and shouted happily: [O! Widziałem twoje gołe zdjęcie w gazecie]. “I froze. My in-laws demonstrated the lesson and pretended not to listen. The wedding took place on time.”
The actress herself confirms that the famous bed scene was recorded in an intimate setting. Director Roman Zalewski left only two actors on set (Anna Senyuk and Tadeusz Borowski) and a camera operator. All the electricians, prop masters and assistants were asked to leave.
The film's scenes were filmed in Szczebrzeszyn and the surrounding area
To this day, residents of this charming town of Roztocze can look back fondly at photos from half a century ago. It doesn't just show an ambulance rushing along the road from Zwirzyniec to Szczebrzyzew. Several houses, farms and passers-by appear in the frame. You can also see the distinctive brick roadside chapel, which still stands at the intersection of Brody Duże and Niedzieliska Streets.
In the film, you can see the apartment houses in Szczebrzeszyn, which was colloquially called “Manhattan”. In the background we can also see the buildings built next to the local market square and the market. A keen viewer's eye will also notice unusual posters hanging on the walls of the institution. One of them says, “Buy eggs, poultry, and feathers.”
— “Echocardiogram” is still mentioned in Szczepperzeiten. After all, we see many additions in it, residents of the Zamoš region for more than half a century – confirms Korir Lubelski, one of the residents. — There are many changes, but the old atmosphere of our city is still felt today.
It was the first and so far only film filmed in the city
“Eardogram” is based on the novel “Nevermore in the World” by Alexander Minkowski. In addition to Anna Senjuk and Tadeusz Borowski, the main roles were played by such famous actors as Bogosz Bielowski, Ilyasz Kośmie, Józef Nowak and Bolesław Plotnicki. What is the theme of the movie?
As we read on www.filmpolski.pl, young doctor Adam Rawitz (played by Borowski) begins working in a small town in eastern Poland. He becomes involved with Teresa (played by Senyuk), the wife of the seriously ill school principal. He must also determine the cause of the child's death. There is a suspicion that his mother killed him because he was an illegitimate child. Everyone advises the doctor to cover up. However, he decided to perform an autopsy, which indicated that the child could have suffocated on his own. A feeling arises between the doctor and Teresa. They have to hide their relationship.
