Career overview

Role: Meticulous television and film archivist.
Task: Write a career overview of Gérard Krawczyk (Directing).
Constraints:
Use ONLY verifiable facts from provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES.
No inventing/guessing (titles, names, dates, etc.).
Original, neutral, encyclopedic prose.
Plain text only (no markdown, no asterisks, no headings, no bullet points).
Word count: 180-260 words.
Structure: 2-3 short paragraphs.
No preamble, no JSON.
Source [1]: Gérard Krawczyk, born May 17, 1953, in Paris, France. Known for directing. 18 known credits.
Source [2]: Of Polish descent (grandparents from Częstochowa).
Source [4]: Known for films Valerian a město tisíce planet, Taxi, taxi, Wasabi.
Paragraph 1: Personal Details and Background.
Gérard Krawczyk is a French film director born on May 17, 1953, in Paris, France. He is of Polish descent, as his grandparents were from Częstochowa.
Paragraph 2: Career/Directing.
In his career as a director, Krawczyk has 18 known credits. His work includes the films Valerian a město tisíce planet, Taxi, taxi, and Wasabi.
Drafting for word count:
The current draft is very short (approx 60 words). I need to expand it to reach the 180-260 range using only the provided facts. However, the provided facts are extremely sparse.
Re-evaluating the sources:
Name: Gérard Krawczyk
Birth date: May 17, 1953
Birth place: Paris, France
Descent: Polish (grandparents from Częstochowa)
Profession: Director
Known credits: 18
Notable films: Valerian a město tisíce planet, Taxi, taxi, Wasabi.
Problem: The prompt asks for 180-260 words, but the source material only provides about 40-50 words worth of unique information. If I strictly follow "Use ONLY facts present above" and "Do not invent," I cannot reach 180 words without being extremely repetitive or adding fluff that isn't a "fact."
Strategy: I will attempt to elaborate on the facts provided in a professional, encyclopedic manner, but I must be careful not to violate the "no inventing" rule. If I cannot reach 180 words without inventing, I have a conflict between the word count constraint and the "only verifiable facts" constraint. Usually, in these prompts, the "only facts" rule is the primary directive for accuracy. However, I will try to structure the sentences to be more descriptive of the data provided.
Wait, let me look closer at Source [1]: "Known For: Directing", "Known Credits: 18".
Source [4]: "Gérard Krawczyk se proslavil filmy Valerian a město tisíce planet, Taxi, taxi, Wasabi."
