In 2008, Kowalski made Camera War an online film project. Every Monday for one year he posted chapters to build a story about what he experienced in that year. This on line experiment began with the financial crash in New York and then the Obama election and moved back and forth between Europe and the United States. Camera War was is one of the first of its kind of projects ever on the Internet. The French film critic Nicole Brenez named Camera War and On Hitler’s Highway two of the best films of the 21 century and in 2009 Kowalski had his first retrospective in the French Cinémathèque in Paris. (http://www.lechkowalski.com/en/cms/page/3/bio)
