series Kino Polska: New Polish Cinema
Directed by Małgorzata Szumowska | 2018
With Mateusz Kosciukiewicz, Agnieszka Podsiadlik, Malgorzata Gorol
After becoming severely injured while helping to construct the world’s largest statue of Jesus, a heavy metal rebel undergoes a complete facial transplant—and a subsequent identity crisis—that leaves him shunned and alienated from his family and community. Blending surreal humor with biting social commentary, Małgorzata Szumowska offers a provocative, boldly original critique of consumerism, Catholicism, and rising nationalism in contemporary Poland.
