We will talk with the authors about their book "Zawód: Fotografistka". The book tells the story of Bydgoszcz pioneers of professional photography. Photographers are emancipants, professionally active women, photography enthusiasts and owners of their own interests. They came from various parts of Poland, Bydgoszcz chose Six Women as their Promised Land - six colorful stories, depicted in a photographic atelier and in private life. Bold professional choices, love stories, joys and tragedies. In the background the interwar period, a dynamic time of political and social changes.
