Polish Feature Film Festival: Magdalena Boczarska about debuts and second films

“These films are so completely different and different that (…) we had to agree on what basis we would evaluate them and for what, in order to do justice to these films – we have (in the competition – editor’s note) a historical film for PLN 20 million on the one hand, produced on a huge scale and on a micro-budget with only two actors. We had to find a common denominator (…)” – says Magdalena Boczarska in an interview with Katarzyna Zdanowicz.

During the conversation an interesting statement is made about debuts and second films – can it be compared to the second album released by the band? Does it have to live up to expectations or is it better to be completely different from the previous, first work?

Later in the conversation, the journalist and actress talk about this year’s festival and Magdalena Boczarska’s plans. What productions will we see her in soon?

“I’m currently shooting a series for a streaming platform and I can’t reveal anything more for now. However, a new film in which I can be seen is coming out in October – ‘Napad’ directed by Michał Gazda, and there are two more productions in store,” says the actress .

Magdalena Boczarska’s first cinematic role was the character of Ania in the film “Under the Surface” (2006) – the story of four people who meet in a house by the lake, and during the moments spent together, their hidden passions come to life. Immediately afterwards, she appeared in a star-studded film “Fur” (2007) Tomasz Drozdowicz.

Her subsequent roles in the films of the Andrzej Saramonowicz-Tomasz Konecki duo brought her real popularity. She appeared in their “Testosterone” (2007) and “Lejdis” (2008), and after the main role in “The Perfect Guy for My Girlfriend” (2009), Jan Kidawa-Błoński entrusted her with the title role in his drama “Różyczka” (2010).

In addition to films, Boczarska has also been regularly appearing in TV series for years. She played her first major television role in the production of “Tango with an Angel”, a story about four friends living in Wrocław. In the following years, we could see the actress again in television productions. She starred in the series “Second Chance”, “Under the Surface” and “Sasha’s Elements – Fire”. She also appeared in the famous Canal+ mini-series: “The King” and “The Wolf”, as well as in Netflix’s “Keep Calm”. Recently we could see her in “Little Rose 2”, “Heaven in Hell” and “The Girl and the Astronaut”.
