Hania, a 6-year-old orphan, is taken in by a young Polish couple who, despite the enormous risks, decide to give her not only shelter but also love. Against mortal danger, Anastasia and Jan move heaven and earth to save not only Hania's life, but also to help her remain a child. The key role here is played by Pajtek, considered a local freak, becoming the girl's closest friend, a substitute for an older brother, who even in the most difficult moments will be able to distract her from the evils of this world and infect her with his joy of life.
Directed by Michał Szczerbic, Sprawiedliwy leans on a strong ensemble — Jacek Braciak, Aleksandra Hamkało, Urszula Grabowska — 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 drama titles of 2016.
