Garby

A stonemason Ajio, quiet, honest and conscientious by nature, works on road construction in Lailonia. One day, a hump grows on his back, which quickly turns into Ajio's double. Ajio's double is aggressive, vicious and lazy. He quickly manages to convince those around him that he is the real Ajio. Soon an epidemic of humpbacks affects all the residents of Lailonia. Real people are replaced by their doubles. They are aggressive and imperious. Ajio's double takes over the city of humpbacks. Only Ajio's son manages to escape the city. He hopes that when he grows up - he will return and deal with the humpbacks.

Directed by Marek Serafiński, Garby leans on a strong ensemble — Wojciech Wojtkowski, Anna Korpowska, Bogdan Nowicki — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about animation titles of 1998.
