The gala premiere of the comedy “In-Laws 2” took place at the Helios cinema in Warsaw, attended by the filmmakers and invited guests. From Friday, 15 September, the film directed by Kalina Alabrudzińska can be seen on cinema screens across Poland.
The event was attended by the makers of “In-Laws 2”, including Maja Ostaszewska, Izabela Kuna, Adam Woronowicz, Eryk Kulm jr and Andrzej Zieliński. Also appearing on the pink carpet were: Katarzyna Warnke, Maciej Zień and Magdalena Lamparska. The premiere was hosted by Agnieszka Woźniak-Starak.
What is “In-Laws 2” about?
Will the wedding happen this time? Weronika and Łukasz – the would-be newlyweds from the first film – decide to give themselves a second chance and invite the family to a wedding and reception in a seaside town. Among the guests are characters viewers already know well: Wanda and Tadeusz with their dog Mirelka, as well as the divorced Małgorzata accompanied by… Jan, more than a dozen years her junior, and her mother. The sea, the drinks and the scantily clad beachgoers all make the members of the young couple’s family open up more and more and drop their successive masks.
“In-Laws 2” is a comic and ironic tale about the state of a thirty-year marriage, about the generation gap in a relationship – which still seems to be a taboo subject – and about whether getting married is worth it at all.
The first film, which premiered two years ago, instantly won the hearts of both audiences and critics. “In-Laws” drew more than 450,000 viewers to cinemas and later enjoyed a long run of success on streaming platforms.
On the set of “In-Laws 2”, Maja Ostaszewska, Izabela Kuna, Adam Woronowicz and Ewa Dałkowska met once again. They were joined in the cast by Eryk Kulm jr and Andrzej Zieliński.
As with the first film, the screenplay is by Marek Modzelewski, and the film is directed by Kalina Alabrudzińska.
The film is produced by AKSON STUDIO. The co-producers are TVN Warner Bros. Discovery and NEXT FILM. The film is distributed in Poland by NEXT FILM.
The film was made in Poland with financial support under the Act on Financial Support for Audiovisual Production, granted by the Polish Film Institute from the funds of the Minister of Culture and National Heritage.
“In-Laws 2” in cinemas across Poland from Friday.
