Meeting after the film: Tymon Tymański (protagonist), Konrad Kulczyński (director), Jakub Knera (director), Olaf Deriglasoff (protagonist)

The movie follows musicians led by Tymon Tymański, navigating the absurd reality of post-transformation Poland, full of kitsch and contradictions. In 1997, as the band Kury, they recorded the legendary album P.O.L.O.V.I.R.U.S., a satirical take on 90s Poland—capitalism, show business, and a disco polo-dominated scene. Balancing parody and social commentary, this musical experiment became a defining postcard of the era. Twenty-five years later, its relevance endures as the band reunites to play it live, once again confronting the question: what are success and creative freedom?
