Summary/Abstract: In her essay, the author examines Polish contemporary directors, whose films offer us “therapy” by injecting the public discourse with previously absent topics, such as Polish antisemitism, coexist-ence with the beneficiaries of the former system, and “falling in love with one’s own beauty,” as Maria Janion put it. The films by Jan Jakub Kolski, Marcin Wrona and Rafael Lewandowski, and especially the works of Władysław Pasikowski and Wojciech Smarzowski are discussed.
