About Jacek and Placek
The two twins, Jacek and Placek, start out as cruel and lazy boys whose main interest is eating, eating anything, including chalk and a sponge in school. One day they have the idea of stealing the moon; after all, it is made of gold.
Directed by Leszek Marek Gałysz, Jacek and Placek leans on a strong ensemble — Ewa Szykulska, Dorota Stalińska, Jan Kobuszewski — 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 adventure titles of 1989.
