Get in, we're already late.

Let's wait for Tomek and Marcin.

Let's go!

How do you like the music?

Shitty.

-What? -Shitty!

Come on!

THEATER FESTIVAL OF DISABLED ARTISTS

Ariel!

Hurry up!

Krzysiek!

-Let's go! -Come on! They're calling us!

Come on!

Come on!

You got a prize! Everyone's waiting!

-What prize? -The first prize!

Please welcome! The Personal Property Office!

Bravo!

Congratulations to your theater group!

Thank you very much.

We didn't expect it. It's a great surprise.

This prize is really important for us.

It will help us make a show

in a professional theater, which has always been our dream.

-About us! -About us.

-About Zebra! -About Zorba.

A big cheer for the Personal Property Office!

-The Personal Property Office! -The Personal Property Office!

What can the Gdańsk Theater Group do?

-They can bite us! Hands up! -We've got it!

As you know,

we received a Ministry grant…

Please, take a seat.

A grant to promote such a stage show.

It's always been my dream to perform on this stage.

I used to come here with my dad.

Our group has also dreamed about playing on stage.

And dreams do come true.

What's important…

This show must be…

related to Shakespeare somehow.

We got the prize. We were going to keep working on our show.

Yes, I know, but it offers more opportunities.

Fragments of Hamlet, Macbeth.

I'll be the supervisor.

-They don't speak too well. -They'll learn to speak.

You want to protect them their whole life?

People need challenges.

No, I'm sorry, it's ridiculous.

Come on, let's go.

Our agreement was totally different.

We were going to stage our show, and not…

Come on, let's go.

-Goodbye! -Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Let's go, Michał.

Sir, how do you see our plan?

-Shakespeare is a serious issue. -Guys, wait!

Isn't he?

-You don't pronounce "R." -But I pronounce "S."

Come on!

-Goodbye. -Goodbye.

-Krzysiek, am I going to play? -Am I?

Are we going to play at all?

I don't know.

-What are we going to play? -What are we going to play?

Get in.

Don't worry so much!

We want to invite someone famous to the project to get more money.

And raise its status.

-We're supposed to play Shakespeare. -And you will.

They will play it. Beautifully, truthfully, in their own way, as usual.

Mom, for you, they'll even dance Swan Lake.

Those pricks don't care what they're going to play.

I know.

Which Shakespeare?

Don't know. I don't even know if I'll do it.

How about Romeo and Juliet?

I staged it with your dad in high school.

What if this Shakespeare is a chance for you?

You went to see the director with a hairdo like this?

-Yes. -I need to comb your hair.

Lights!

More lights!

But you're going to have rehearsals on the small stage.

-Welcome aboard! -Ahoy!

This is our winning group and our new fellow colleagues.

The Lost Property Office.

"Personal."

Yes, of course.

We're waiting for Wiktoria, who will join our project.

Not yet… I'll call you, okay?

We'll be working on a play by Shakespeare.

And the premiere will take place

on the World Down Syndrome Day.

Why don't we make a round?

What do you mean?

To get to know each other.

-Hello! -Hello, Ms. Wiktoria!

-Hi, Star! -Good morning.

Our celebrity has arrived!

-Thank you! -I have a question!

Do you ever use the toilet?

Stop it!

Can you hold it, please?

I'll turn my phone off…

Have you heard of William Shakespeare?

-He created scenes. -Lovely! Of course!

-He wrote poems. -Wonderful.

He played in TV series, porn films, and he was a DJ.

-In cabarets… -No, he played in a soap opera…

He was a writer, right?

William Shakespeare was no dancer or singer.

He was the best playwright in the world.

And a great poet.

Most importantly, Shakespeare gave us the key to understand ourselves.

-You have to… -Excuse me.

To ask courageously on stage, "Who am I?"

I know who I am.

You're a great artist and a star.

For us.

-See you tomorrow! -Bye, Wiki!

Wiktoria, come with us!

Come on!

-Bye! -Bye!

What about the flowers?

Ms. Wiktoria!

Thank you!

-I thought you were much shorter. -Call me Wiki.

Krzysiek.

Can you pick me up tomorrow morning? My car broke down.

Can you?

-Sure. -You can?

That's great! Bye!

See you!

"To be, or not to be, that is the question…"

"To be, or not to be, that is the question…"

-"Whether 'tis…" -Mom, where are the gaskets?

I put them over there. Don't disturb us.

"Whether 'tis nobler…"

"Whether 'tis nobler…"

"in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune…"

Mary, sit next to me. We must prepare it really well.

-"this mortal coil…" -"this mortal coil…"

Take a seat. And focus.

-"Must give us pause…" -"May give us…"

Must!

-"Must give us pause." -"Must give us pause."

"There's the respect that makes calamity of so long life."

"There's the respect…"

-"That makes…" -"That makes…"

-"that makes our life hard…" -Hard, yes.

That theater director, how much is he going to pay you?

-Pay? You mean, remuneration. -"Pay" is easier to pronounce.

I don't know. I haven't talked to him.

"Thus conscience does make cowards of us all,

and thus the native hue of resolution

is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought…" Jesus Christ.

"And enterprises of great pitch and moment with this regard…"

This is too difficult. They won't learn it.

They won't understand anything.

How about something…

Oh, gosh!

Come on, Mary. What have you learned?

"To be, or not to be." That's all I remember.

Ania!

Renia! Janek!

Here you go, Mary.

-Hi! I'm so sorry… -Hi.

I'm here. Thanks for waiting.

How do you like Shakespeare?

If I had a boyfriend like Hamlet, I'd kick his ass!

Was Ophelia with or without a disability?

We don't know that.

Krzysiek?

Who's going to play Ophelia?

The director!

-Hello! -Hey!

Hello!

We have a tradition in the theater. We don't drink on stage.

I've already filled it so I'll drink it, okay?

I'd like to ask you. How do you understand this text?

Excuse me, before we discuss the text…

We don't know each other at all.

A few words about each of us…

What's your name?

-Ania. -Great.

Ania, can you tell us anything about yourself?

I'm really curious.

I'm an open-minded person.

-Do you like theater? -I love it.

This is what we've got in common.

My name is Michał.

It's nice to take part in this workshop.

We can have fun and learn something.

We can understand something.

It's nice to be an actor who knows what it's all about.

My name is Tomek.

Tomasz.

I just want to be the best actor…

In the world.

-Janek? -I'm Janek.

-I play the saxophone. -Wow!

I like to sing.

And I love everyone plus Wiktoria.

Ariel?

I've got nothing…

-He's got nothing to say. -He has. Come on, Ariel.

-Say it. -Well…

-You're doing well. -It looks beautiful.

-You're doing well. -You want to play in this show with us?

Hi! My name is Natalia.

I love theater. And all the actors.

The amateurs, but also…

the professionals. I love them a lot.

-Marcin? -I'm Marcin.

I like music. Dancing.

I wake up, come here, and practice.

I sing, too.

And I'm…

a hero!

Adam?

I'm a director and I help Krzysiek.

And I'm still waiting for 20 PLN Krzysiek owes me.

Or… I don't know.

Wait…

Is it my turn?

I'm Wiktoria. Wiki.

I'm single. At the moment.

Sorry, my phone's ringing.

I like cats… Wait. I have such a mess.

Excuse me, I'll continue in a moment.

I have to take this call.

I have a rehearsal.

I'm focused on something else. Can't you handle it?

Renia, say something about yourself.

I'm Renia and I'd like to perform with professional actors.

I want to see how they play their roles.

I'd like to be happy and smiling.

But I can't, because I have health problems.

-Mary? -I'm also an actress.

My biggest dream is to become a real professional actress.

And play on a real stage with professionals.

Our theater is my family. My passion.

My name is Oliwia.

Oliwia, do you like Shakespeare?

The text you've read.

No. I don't want to read or hear it.

-Why not? -Because it sucks.

There is an ass in this text…

Krzysiek?

My name is Krzysiek. Like you've said.

I run our theater group.

We've been operating for 21 years.

Why people with disabilities?

"Why people with disabilities?"

Because I have a sister with a disability.

That's why.

Thank you.

You have beautiful ears. Transparent.

-Is that good? -No.

For the weather like today, thick ears are better, like Krzysiek.

-I've got thick ears? -Unfortunately, yes.

You're finally here!

-How's the star? Okay? -Okay. But she's got huge ears like me.

Today, the most successful are… I forgot the word, it starts with "G".

Gays for sure.

You have to make jokes all the time? Hang it there.

It was my last joke ever.

You keep coming and going… Celebrities! I remember.

Naked celebrities. I've read she's not even an actress.

But she's a star.

Naked.

-Bye. Tomorrow at nine. -Okay.

Don't oversleep.

-How are you? -Mom, I'll be playing Ophelia.

Well… Ophelia.

That's a challenge.

She does a stupid thing, killing herself.

-For love. -If I'm in love, should I kill myself?

No, I won't let you.

Ariel, what are you doing? We're having a rehearsal.

-The ghost. -What ghost?

Ghost, because now is… on that side…

-What? -The ghost…

-You're playing the King's Ghost? -Yes.

Ariel is playing the Ghost of Hamlet's Father.

"Only your name is my enemy. You are yourself, not who you seem to be."

"Who are we? It is nor hand, nor foot,

nor arm, nor face, nor any other part belonging to a man."

"O, be some other name! What's in a name?"

"That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet."

"So Romeo would, were he not Romeo called,

retain that dear perfection which he owes without that title."

-What is this about? -Sex?

-It's not about sex. -What about then?

About love.

The first love is the most important.

In life.

Infatuation.

-Fear. -And truth.

I've never fallen in love yet.

My mom, my sister, sure.

But in general, not really.

Oh, really? What about Tomek?

He's not my love. We don't kiss.

-You don't have to kiss to be a couple. -So you're friends?

I had love once, but I lost it.

-Don't look at me this way. -I like this woman.

She's sitting there. Mary.

-No… -Mary?

-And I love her. -But I don't love you.

They adore you.

They are always 100% themselves, huh?

Yes. 200% in fact.

You are 200% too.

-200? -Yes.

Is that good?

-How old is Wiktoria? -She's younger than us.

-Let's not talk about it. -I think she's 38.

All right, so she's 38.

-Do you like Wiktoria? -She's cool.

-She's nice. -And remarkable.

You should marry her.

Go, Mary!

"Only your name is my enemy."

"You are yourself, not who you 'sheem' to be."

"Only your name is my enemy."

"You are yourself, not who you seem to be."

Look, we're doing a rehearsal, and you're disturbing me.

You're ruining my rehearsal.

You know what? Goodbye. I won't talk to you.

Now say it with the same anger you felt when you talked to Mom.

"Only your name…" Come on.

"Only your name is my enemy."

"You are yourself, not who you 'sheem' to be."

-"Seem." -I can't get angry at Mr. Shakespeare.

-But I can. -Then show us what you can do.

"Only your name is my enemy."

"You are yourself,

and who you 'sheem' to be.'

Who are we? Actors.

It is neither ears nor eyes…

-…nor asses. -We won't go far on our asses.

You want to focus on asses or our show?

-Our show! -Then let's get back to it.

If we focused on asses, we wouldn't be here.

I want to focus on asses!

Why don't you focus on your thermos on stage?

-And my own ass. -That's the art you've mastered.

Hello!

Hello.

-I'd like to talk. -The door's blocked. Don't open it.

Tell your actors not to open this door.

As for your actors… I can't handle them.

I know only movement-based methods.

The wheels are in motion.

If we back out now, we're screwed.

-Besides, it will work for sure. -For sure?

People perceive your group differently.

-Like idiots. -Like amateurs.

You're ambitious.

I used to be ambitious, too. And now I run this shack.

You're the director. Do what you want with the rehearsals.

Tomorrow, we'll do a rehearsal our way, okay?

-Will there be oil? -Yes?

And a monument?

-Only if they learn it. -Sure.

If you're ready, please come on stage.

Close your eyes.

Close your eyes.

Imagine a small drop of oil on your palm.

Let's feel it.

The drop soaks in the palm.

Move your hand so that the oil enters the bones.

The entire hand is covered in oil.

Try to feel it.

We're all covered in oil.

And we're fighting!

-Wiktoria! -Wiki!

Hello!

I'm suffocating!

Joasia…

-Hello! Sorry for being late. -Hello!

I saw you stand up.

Yes, I stomped a little.

You started and then suddenly… you stopped.

I didn't know what to do next.

I saw you raise your arm and…

Pity you don't see our star screw up our rehearsals.

Excuse me, Mr. Krzysztof!

-Wait! -Ms. Wiktoria!

Can we…

-What's going on? -Sir, this method is wonderful.

The audience will love it if they believe it.

I have a request. Can you stay and join them?

Only if you stay and join us.

-I'll come to the rehearsal tomorrow. -So will I.

Everyone, find a spot for you.

If you do, you can stop.

Let's imagine…

-Did you find it? -I found it.

We've just had a hard night.

Exhale.

Look at each other.

Who the fate sent you today?

Say hello with your eyes.

Try to grow fond of your feet.

Say hello with your feet.

-Hi! -Hello!

If you meet someone again, you can say hello again.

Hi, Natalia. And you're here again.

Yes, miss. Exactly…

Let's try to greet the theater director.

Who wants to say hello to him?

Okay, Natalka.

All right. Come on, Ariel.

You've used physical movement so far.

But I insist on Shakespeare. His plays help release emotions.

I know you encounter obstacles, various mental blocks,

but this is your chance to make use of these obstacles.

And I'd like to see these conflicts in you.

I must see my reflection in them. That's what theater is about.

We see ourselves in others. A natural mirror.

I'm looking at you.

And you're looking at me.

-You're not listening to me. -I'm not!

I'm reading about sport.

By Monday, we must decide what we're going to stage.

Thank you for now.

Is this for me?

"He mocks scars who have never received a wound."

So, we've got the first line already. Goodbye!

Goodbye!

"You're not listening to me!"

He corrected you.

Sorry, I forgot my text.

Bye!

What a madhouse!

Hi, Mom!

-How are you doing? -Great! Haven't smoked for three days.

-The washing? You were to lie down. -I can't lie and do nothing.

-Mary! -Hi!

Since you're here… Something gurgles under the sink.

-Nothing gurgles there. -But it stinks.

Star, get dressed!

-Hurry up, we're late. -Got your teeth?

No!

-Can you take the bull at last? -Sure.

Got them!

-Where did you find them? -In my mouth.

Go get them! Put your jacket on.

-And the hat. -Come on, we're late…

Take it out of here or I'll go nuts.

I'm sorry, but I can't see the point of all this.

I don't understand it. We keep doing the same exercises.

What's our goal?

I don't know who I am, in what play. What play am I in?

By Shakespeare.

By Shakespeare?

Well, thank you.

I must know why I come on stage. Who am I?

What are my tasks on stage?

But here, I know nothing.

I can't see the point of all this. I just…

I'm sorry, but I have to resign.

It's not against you.

Hi, Wiktoria!

-Hi! -Hey!

-Hi, Wiktoria! -Hi, Wiktoria!

How are you feeling, guys? Okay?

-Sure. -Can you pull over right there for a sec?

I need to do just one thing.

-But we're late… -Sorry, I have to do it.

They need me. I didn't give them an interview.

I'll let them take photos at least.

-I have a festival premiere. -Fine, okay.

-The director didn't invite you guys? -No, not at all.

Oh, I see. So I'm inviting you!

I really am! I'll be happy to see you.

You'll be VIPs.

-Wiktoria! -Wiktoria!

Mary!

Stop!

Stop, wait!

-We're the Personal Property Office. -All right, but…

-They are my guests. -Check "Lost Property Office."

-"Personal." -We don't have personal invitations.

Doesn't this happen?

All right.

-All right, let's go. -I'm sorry.

All right, place it in front.

We have to go upstairs.

Here!

I have… all right.

Hey! Hello!

Hi, hello!

I'm cold.

Hold me.

-Not like this. -Then how?

As if you loved me.

-Hello! -Geez.

Hi, girl!

You look so beautiful!

-Wow! -You look beautiful as well.

This is the director. And the director.

The producer. The director. And these are the actors.

-So you're the producer, right? -Yes.

The producer and director, a one-man band.

Great! I knew they wouldn't let me in.

-What's wrong? -I lost my teeth.

-What? -I lost my teeth in the cinema.

It's very cinematic to lose teeth at the film festival.

Don't worry.

My life's full of crazy people. Keep an eye on them.

-Okay. -You don't even know where to go! Wait!

Mr. Producer…

-To the film. -To the film!

The point is to create a new hero for the contemporary viewer.

Someone to identify with.

As creators, we're obliged to work through national traumas.

-Do you agree? -We're interested in Shakespeare only.

Yes, of course.

Shakespeare.

I have to go!

I can't see your teeth here, Mary.

-Where was your seat? -In the sixth row.

Excuse me…

Don't worry, Mary. We'll find your teeth.

-You won't catch me! -Don't run away!

-You'll never catch me! -Wiki!

You're crazy…

I'm cold.

Okay, let's go.

Stop.

I'll go back to them. Yes.

-Come with me. -No.

Come on.

Come on…

Bye!

No, wait…

It's Mary.

Come on…

Sure. You're turned on only by Down's people.

I know everything. Ania's mom called me.

How could you leave them alone?

I told you a hundred times not to put your teeth in your pocket!

It costs a lot.

And you hang around with some celebrity.

Why did you give birth to me like this?

Go to Mary!

Don't hug me!

-I left them only for a moment. -And you know…

But you know they can't be left alone even for a moment.

For fuck's sake, all the weekends, I have to be with Mary.

All sorts of holidays, I have to be with Mary.

My mates are busy with football or girls, and I have to be with Mary.

A mountain camp with Mary. Damn it, always her.

What would you do in life without Mary?

Now, they have appreciated your group, right?

When do you finally settle down, son?

-Did you? -I did what I could!

Me too.

I'M RUNNING LATE

WE'RE WAITING FOR YOU

-Wine! -No, beer!

Gertrude!

So, we're drinking beer for Hamlet?

And that man sitting over there, the tall one!

This is Hamlet.

Krzysiek!

Why are you sitting here all alone?

Sitting and thinking.

What about?

Silly things, I bet.

Exactly.

I thought so.

So, here's our rehearsal.

What progress have you made?

We'll be performing at the Shakespeare Theater.

We've been selected for the Festival.

Great.

Have you done the scene with the Mother?

-We don't know. -We don't know.

-How about the scene with the actors? -We don't know.

We don't know either.

Krzysiek, did we do, "To be, or not to be"?

Krzysiek!

-Was there a fortepiano? -What?

-Fortepiano! -Fortinbras! No, there wasn't.

-Was there Fortinbras? -No.

The killing of Polonius?

The arrival of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern?

I don't remember.

We want to rehearse, but the director will kill us soon.

-Tell him I'm coming. -We believe in you, you know?

Mary?

-"Only your name…" -No, start again.

"Only your name is my enemy."

"You are yourself, not who you seem to be."

"Who are we? It is nor hand, nor foot,

nor arm, nor face, nor any other part belonging to a man."

Marcin?

You love Ophelia, but you can't tell her that.

You can only move.

And you react to it, Mary.

-No! -No!

All right…

Okay. Where's Mr. Bartoszek?

-I don't know. -Come on stage, everyone.

Mary, stop it, please.

Everyone, sit at the table.

I'll go and get Mr. Bartoszek and Wiki.

We're having a rehearsal.

I have a meeting to attend.

-The Festival ended. -These things never end.

You don't appreciate in what conditions I must work for you.

The only conditions here are yours.

All the actors are to come on stage!

"Sleep rock thy brain,

and never come mischance between us twain!"

I don't understand.

I don't understand it, either.

Miss, who do you play?

Everyone wants to play Ophelia.

Go ahead and try.

-No, Renia. -Please.

-Why don't you play Hamlet? -I won't play with her.

-Why not, Janek? -She's too tall.

"Ophelia…"

"Nymph…"

"Are you honest?"

"My lord?"

"Are you fair?"

"What means your lordship?"

"That if you be honest and fair,

your honesty should admit no discourse to your beauty."

Very poor.

You never loved me, cruel traitor.

Can we talk in private?

Excuse me…

Renia, come on.

You all right?

You have to replace the actress.

-Which actress? -The toothless one.

I can't understand her.

Plus, she looks awful.

The audience must love the heroine, not get scared of her.

The toothless diva won't get us far.

Why hide who they really are?

You want the audience to feel sympathy.

But they buy tickets to go to the theater.

The shitty theater!

They want to watch actors who pretend, not sick people.

Wiki will play the heroine.

And you should work on your diction! It's shitty, too!

-They talk about us at the theater. -About me, not you.

-You don't have false teeth like me. -But I have other illnesses.

-So give up theater. -You give up theater.

I'll never give up theater!

I am and I will remain an actress!

I can borrow false teeth from Ania's mom.

My mom won't lend them.

I'll borrow them for the show and give them back.

Mary, I won't stage the show without you guys.

Bye!

Krzysiek kicked me out because of my teeth!

It's the only theater group I'll ever have.

It's my phone. Mine!

It's Wiktoria.

You were to come on your own.

Jesus, Wiktoria… We're almost at the theater.

Turn it off. Please.

-Turn it off. -Turn this shit off.

-Turn it off. -No, don't!

-Turn it off! -Dance with me!

I had a dream about this rabbit.

-The rehearsal is in ten minutes. -Fine! Let's go!

I must get dressed.

-You're so focused on the rehearsal. -It's in ten minutes!

I'll get dressed…

Just a second and we're leaving.

Awesome.

-I'm fat as a pig. -Don't talk about yourself like that.

I'm like this chubby rabbit.

Come on.

It's too small…

Oh, jeez.

Come on!

Look at me!

Look at me.

Look at me!

Look at me!

Look at me…

-Not like this. -Like what then?

Like you look at them.

With care.

Here, take a seat.

Okay, let's start with Act II Scene IV.

I thought we'd start with Act I.

I left my text in the canteen.

Then jog your memory.

Close your eyes!

Try to connect with the people around you.

But you can't. So you stop and start talking.

"O, that this too solid flesh would melt,

thaw, and resolve…

resolve…"

-She doesn't know it! -She's unprepared!

Can you control it?

Mary?

"O, that this too solid flesh would melt,

thaw, and resolve itself into a dew!"

"Or that the Everlasting had not fixed his canon against self-slaughter!"

Our fellow actress can repeat now.

Well?

-"She felt attracted to him…" -Wrong lines.

-"O, that this too…" -"The more love she received…"

-Go back. -"the more love she wanted."

Wrong lines.

"Too solid flesh would melt!"

-What are you doing? -"Too solid flesh would melt!"

"The Everlasting had not fixed his canon…" You've heard me?!

When I fell in love with him

-I realized that -I can't believe it.

-I can see you -Stop!

Thank you.

Sorry, I can't stand it anymore.

Sir, can you come to our rehearsal?

Our director can't handle it.

We need your support. Thank you!

What shall we do?

Can you control it, please?

Or you don't have the balls? I already know you can't grab my tits!

Fucking rehearsals!

Fucking hell!

You're fired, Wiktoria!

And you're fired, too!

The Ghost of Hamlet's Father!

I will hold the rehearsal tomorrow.

"Mother!"

Where are you?

Why aren't you taking care of me?

Stop! I'm sorry.

Hold on for a moment.

Mr. Krzysztof…

The rehearsals you did, don't they contain a single word by Shakespeare?

Only Mary remembers the lines. They say their own words.

Whose words are we staging? Your actors' or Shakespeare's?

So they don't say any lines by Shakespeare?

You didn't learn anything?

They might say some lines by Shakespeare, but not all.

-So they use their own words. -Good, there you go…

All I expected from you was that they used the material.

-How can I… -We can use some lines, sure.

I told you they couldn't stage the whole play.

Can you stand here, please?

Actually, sit down.

Can you sit down as well?

Please say the lines and nothing else.

Nothing that comes to your mind.

Only say, "Mother!"

I have a request. Don't yell at her, "Mother!"

Go!

-"Mother." -Good…

-"Mother." -Yes.

-"Mommy…" -Not "Mommy"! It's "Mother"!

"Mother!"

When you were born, you were different.

Your father loved you, but differently.

He was caring, gentle, sensitive.

He was afraid of one thing only.

Love.

Only of love.

I like you.

-Like? Just like? -I love you.

-There! -Because you're my one and only.

My love.

My woman.

Because I am…

your mother.

-And? -And?

Speechless?

Do we have anything else?

What is it? Don't tell me, I'll try to guess.

And this is…

Ariel, are you okay?

This is the Ghost's double.

Everyone, sit right here, in a row.

Place the chairs here.

And take your seats.

I'll ask some of you to repeat the lines after me.

"To be…"

"Or not to be…"

"That is the question…"

"Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer…"

Great. Very good.

Ariel, right?

Can you remember this line?

"The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune."

Once more. Slowly.

"The slings…"

"The slings…"

-"and arrows…" -"and arrrows…"

-"of outrageous fortune." -"of our fortune."

Very good! Once again.

-"The slings…" -"The slings…"

-"and arrows…" -"and arrows…"

-"of outrageous fortune." -"of outrageous fortune."

-"To be." -"Or not to be."

"That is the question."

"Whether 'tis nobler…"

"In the mind to suffer…"

"The slings… and arrows…

outrageous fortune."

Good.

Good.

Very good.

Very good.

Can you call Ms. Wiktoria, please?

Who am I playing here?

Who am I?

Am I Ophelia or Hamlet? What are my lines?

I don't get it… Who are these people?

Why don't you suggest something?

-What are you doing? -Hey, Marcin!

What was that? You can't walk up and grab…

Wiktoria by the…

-Wait a second! -Marcin, what was that?

-He grabbed me by the tits! -Yes, I saw that.

-So why are you asking him? -Why did you do that?

-Apologize to her. -So sorry, Marcin!

Why don't you apologize because you grabbed her by her breasts?

-He wants to apologize to you. -Come on! He's a man!

-He's disabled so he can grope me? -Fuck me…

Everyone can treat me like a doormat and grab me by the tits.

You're not a doormat, you're a human being.

She should chill out. What's done is done.

-Janek, wait. -He's right.

If she wears clothes like these, everyone will fall in love with her.

It's obvious!

We're scared of starting a family and having kids.

But what does it have to do with me?

Or the fact that he grabs me by the tits?

He's scared of having kids? He won't have kids with me for sure.

We need to get to the point.

-Let's get to the important point. -I know.

What I'm telling you is important.

It's between the two of them, not us.

Today, I'm talking to people who create art. To artists.

-It's great to have you here. -Hello!

-Hello… -We meet in different theaters.

Now, the floor is yours.

Krzysztof with a group of mentally defective people…

-People with intellectual disabilities. -…intellectual disabilities.

He's the director of the show

that is set to premiere at the Shakespeare Theater.

This is the first professional show of the Lost Property Office.

-Personal. -Personal.

What's personal about your art?

We perform our shows personally.

-That's what artists do. -Disabled artists have a hard life.

I think so-called able-bodied artists have the hardest life.

In the time of commercialism and consumption,

being an artist is a sort of disability.

-Well, yes, this profession… -I agree.

Well, yes. It's not the easiest job.

Tell us more about this unique artistic experiment.

Professional actors are preparing the show.

-Among others, yes. -Ms. Wiktoria, sorry…

Your film The Sunny Girl has had its premiere recently.

But can you tell us about your collaboration with this show?

Sure. This is an exceptional project.

This group is exceptional.

I'm very happy to take part in this experiment.

Thank you, sir, for inviting me.

The result of our work will be assessed by you, the viewers.

I hope you'll like what we've created.

-I invite you to see the show! -Thank you!

Mary, you play Ophelia in the show.

-I don't know if I do. -Oh, I see.

What other roles do you dream of?

Roles to earn money.

How's the collaboration with Ms. Wiktoria going?

She's late. She doesn't know her lines. She's wearing sexy clothes.

Then you were angry when Marcin grabbed you by the tits!

-And? -This star should get the fuck out!

-So, we should also get going… -Thank you!

-The Lost Property Office will… -Thank you and goodbye.

-Ariel, Ania, come. -stage a show at the Shakespeare Theater.

Marcin!

Marcin!

Come on.

Was it live?

-Yes. -Sir, can we talk?

We won't treat it as defeat, okay?

-How should we treat it? -Yeah, how?

-As a total failure! -No, Janek!

We just didn't do what the professional theater expected us to do.

But we did what we possibly could.

Thank you all for…

-For every day you spent here. -Did we make a mistake?

It's all fucked up.

-It's not. -We could play really well!

Hands up!

It's the theater director!

You've taken our ball! Catch him!

Give us the ball back!

Give it back! You're either with or against us!

Please give it back.

-Exactly! -Why are you so nervous today?

-Why aren't you rehearsing? -What should we rehearse?

It's hard to get at you through your mask of the injured.

-You want to swap? -Yeah, with us?

He should swap with us!

Let's play!

Go!

Let's see if our theater director wins!

It takes years to build a group like this, you know?

Yes, I do. Twenty-one years.

I've been told I can love only them.

Few people love only them.

Energy lies in their mistakes.

I'd like to ask you a question, sir.

-Yes? -Have you ever been in love?

Yes, I have.

Do you have a girlfriend now?

A girlfriend you love?

No.

Because I want to find a big love.

I'd like to have…

a boyfriend.

I'd really like to sing…

Please, be quiet!

-Yes? -…a song for Krzysiek.

Wait a second…

Sing a song? What do you mean?

Because I've fallen in love with him.

-During the show? -During the show.

But it will never come true.

In real life.

In reality.

And I'd like to experience that.

On stage.

And I'd like to ask you if you could talk to him about it.

"Laertes shall be king!"

-"Laertes king!" -"Laertes king!"

-"Laertes king!" -"Laertes king!"

Mary!

"Only your name is my enemy."

"You are yourself, not who you 'sheem' to be."

-"Seem!" -"Only your name is my enemy."

"You are yourself, not who you 'sheem' to be."

Shitty diction!

Leave me alone!

It's the wrong scene anyway.

Sit down!

-You hurt everyone. -Renia, what is it?

-I want to play. -What character?

Ophelia.

-Shall we let Renia play Ophelia now? -Yes!

Yes? Bravo.

I hate you, traitor, cheater, boor!

I hate you! You never loved me!

You loved your mother! Not me!

Only your mother! You wrote stupid love letters.

I hate you, cheater!

When I fell in love with you

I realized that

I was part of the universe

And everything made sense

I can hear you

I can see you

The person you might be

And the person you'll become

I'm hurt.

And so are you.

Why?

Ophelia…

"Hamlet, where's Polonius?"

"Hamlet: At supper."

"King Claudius: At supper! Where?"

"Hamlet: Not where he eats, but where he is eaten."

"To be, or not to be, that is the question!"

"To be, or not to be, that is the question…"

"To be, or not to be, that is the question!"

"To be, or not to be," it's a line for Hamlet on stage.

To be, or not to be That is the question

To be, or not to be That is the question

To be, or not to be That is the question

What about you? Yes, you!

-Who are you? -Who are you actually?

I'm the author of the book about Hamlet.

William Shakespeare.

It's your fault I drown.

Who are you, people?

What characters are you?

You're only images from my books.

You're so funny.

-Get out! -Get out of here!

-Now! -Now!

-Go away! -Just go!

Get out!

My dear Hamlet!

You're all alone. Everyone else is dead.

There's only one man with the book left.

"Four commanders."

"Let four captains bear Hamlet, like a soldier, to the stage."

"Take up the bodies."

"Such a sight as this becomes the field, but here shows much amiss."

"Go, bid the soldiers shoot."

-Thank you. -Thank a lot.

You played beautifully. Congratulations.

-Congratulations! -Thank you.

Come here! And don't cry!

Wonderful role, Mary.

This is the real Ophelia.

Thank you for coming.

I'll wait for you guys outside.

Did you feel good out there?

-Good! -Good!

The theater director was speechless.

-Yes. -We've made it.

-We've made it. -We've made it.

You were fantastic.

-That's right. -Yes.

Thank you.

TO MY MOM AND BROTHER

We got it. Thank you, everyone.
