Documentary Feature, 74′

Production: Poland, 2024

For forty years of its operation, the Moda Polska (Polish Fashion) Company has brought together many outstanding creators and a large group of models.

In 1998, Jerzy Antkowiak bought the collections of a fashion house from a bankruptcy trustee and kept them in his home for many years. Two decades later, the unique and historically significant items from those collections were used to create the “Jerzy Antkowiak – Moda Polska” exhibition.

Preparations for this exhibition became a starting point for telling the story of a designer whose creative career had begun in the difficult realities of the Polish People’s Republic and had continued after the political transformation and whose ties with the Moda Polska team have withstood the test of time.
