On May 10 cinemas will be taken over by “Supersisters” – a film about superheros, full of spectacular special effects, directed by Maciej Barczewski. Playing the title sisters, Katarzyna Gałązka and Karolina Bruchnicka will talk about the fact that having powers is one thing, the art is to control them. On screen we will also see Tymek Frączek, Grzegorz Damięcki, Mateusz Kościukiewicz and Marek Kalita. Today we present the film’s poster.
– With this film, I reached out to myself as a 12-year-old who passionately watched American adventure films produced by Steven Spielberg’s Amblin studio, and in the early 1990s read the first X-Men comic books published in Poland, says the film’s director Maciej Barczewski. – As the film’s title itself directly indicates, “Supersisters” is also a tribute to the lighter trend of superhero cinema aimed at the whole family. After all, films are not only mirrors commenting on the reality around us, but also windows to the land of imagination, which allow us to move to a close, though unknown world, to give us a little smile and respite from the mundane of everyday life. That’s why “Supersisters” is a thoroughly entertaining cinema, using the tropes and manner of storytelling familiar from Hollywood productions, but set in the colorful Poland of the time of transformation with a wink of an eye.
