About Our Folks: The Beginning
Pawlak and Kargul – the protagonists of the cult-favourite trilogy “Our Folks” – had been neighbours in a village in Podolia before they ended up in the Recovered Territories. Even then, it was one explosive neighbourhood.
Directed by Artur Żmijewski, Our Folks: The Beginning leans on a strong ensemble — Adam Bobik, Karol Dziuba, Weronika Humaj — 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 comedy titles of 2024.
