A portrait of the military leader and national hero Tadeusz ‘Kos’ Kosciuszko, who returned from America to Poland in 1794 to lead an uprising against the Russians alongside Polish nobles and peasants. Spectacularly staged like a western, full of bold action, tension, and a hefty dose of black humor.

Kos was the most awarded title at this year’s Polish Film Festival, where it received nine awards including The Grand Prix-Golden Lions Award for Best Film. The title also triumphed at this year’s Orły 2024 Polish Film Awards, first receiving the most nominations in the history of the award and then picking up six statuettes, including Best Director for Pawel Maślona. Kos is part of the Polska Wiosna Filmowa in collaboration with Scena Polska.
