Gregorius, the Chosen One
This surreal ballad is both a quirky parody and a tribute to chivalric myths and spiritual stories of redemption. Director Tomasz Mielnik’s creative team adapted Thomas Mann’s novel into an absurd comedy that builds on stilted acting, dry dialogues, and sketchy humour. Yet it remains a compelling story of redemption and force of destiny.
