Short film based on a poem by Julius Slovacki.

Juliusz Słowacki’s drama “Balladyna” is one of the author’s most recognizable works. The television production was directed by Wojciech Adamczyk. The play, written in 1834, arose from a fascination with Slavic culture, and its plot was inspired by Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” and “Macbeth.” In his interpretation, Wojciech Adamczyk eschews the ludic elements, giving the story a darker character. The conflict centers on the relationship between two strong female characters: Balladyna and Goplana. Filled with lust, crime, and blood, it’s a story that rivals the emotional depth and richness of Game of Thrones or The Witcher. The world Słowacki describes is dark and dense with passion. The exotic landscape of European pagan mythologies is combined with early Christian aesthetics. Viewers accustomed to “school-style” interpretations of the play will be surprised by the poignantly contemporary vision of human fate in an original approach.

King Jan Kazimierz, Mazepa, a young Cossack from the king's entourage, and Zbigniew, the voivode's son from his first marriage, are all in love with Amelia, the voivode's wife. Dramatic coincidences and misunderstandings lead to a tragic ending. Zbigniew commits suicide, Amelia dies, the voivode orders Mazepa to be captured, stripped naked, and tied to a horse, after which he releases him, while he himself kills himself with a dagger in front of the king.

Desires, obsessions and unfulfilled love - the psychedelic formula of the play pushes the previous boundaries of communication with the audience.
