Dir. DK Welchman and Hugh Welchman
Poland, Serbia, Lithuania | 2023 | oil-painting animation | Polish
THE PEASANTS tells the story of Jagna, a young woman determined to forge her own path within the confines of a late 19th century Polish village - a hotbed of gossip and on-going feuds, held together, rich and poor, by pride in their land, adherence to colourful traditions and a deep-rooted patriarchy. When Jagna finds herself caught between the conflicting desires of the village’s richest farmer, his eldest son and other leading men of the community, her resistance puts her on a tragic collision course with the community around her.

This trailer has more "The Witcher" vibes than a Netflix adaptation of The Witcher...
Lol bc both are about polish Slavic culture. I know there are a lot of people who say that witcher is not about Slavic culture but they are wrong. They can’t change the truth. It is sad bc the author of the book wanted the polish TV to do again a new tv series as we did in the past, but our television was not interested as they did similar historic show back then. Maybe some day Poles with or without help of others will do the new witcher presented by polish culture as it should.
Witcher is also Polish I guess
American moment
True
Polish culture is amazing.
....and people.
Getting forcefully repressed from all conceivable directions breeds some explosive creativity.
That's right. Hello from Poland ❤️
@@JohnDoe-zo8wjYes, this film is a very good show of Polish culture
@@JohnDoe-zo8wjXD
Maybe everyone in your neighborhood mocks them, but most people in the comments are delighted with Polish culture
I've just come from the cinema. It was truly beautiful to watch, but music was the best. It was the most amazing thing I've heard in a long time.
It's worth remembering that this is not CGI or AI generated image but mostly hand-painted animation based on a Nobel Prize winner's novel, which includes scenes from several famous Polish paintings (such as 'Bociany' at 00:04, or 'Babie lato' at 00:40 - by Chełmoński).
digital paintings are still paintings tho. But I do get what you mean. They didnt even abstract/stylize it, its just realism with paint strokes. @@JohnDoe-zo8wj
@@JohnDoe-zo8wj We have a saying in Poland - 'There's no arguing about tastes.' It means that one person might enjoy an animated adaptation from the Polish literary canon, while someone else might prefer TikTok. And that's okay. In my opinion, the animation doesn't look like garbage. 40,000 frames were created by hand using oil paint technique. I saw a few of these images on canvas in person and it left an positive impression on me. I'm going to buy some weed and visit cinema next weekend.
You have every right to dislike this movie, so there is no point in such a discussion.
@@JohnDoe-zo8wj It actually does make sense, although it may be harder to see if you don't have the historical context. The movie is based on a book from the pozytywizm era, which was the Polish equivalent of the realism era in Europe. That was the time art started to lean towards oil paintings, often depicting the life of peasants in the countryside. The book itself follows the principles of pozytywizm, from plot, to language, character creations, and the overall message, which is why it's a classic representation of its' era. The movie is created to reflect that, but as a different art form they have limited ability to adapt the important context of the book. They can't just use words, they have to show it visually, and they decided to play with their art form a bit. I understand if it doesn't appeal to some people, it's definitely not for everyone. It's not just a gimmick though. I personally really like that Polish film makers are trying new stuff and creating unique forms of artistic expression, we've been needing that.
@@JohnDoe-zo8wj That's okay, it's not for everyone like I said 🤷♂️ I'm sure the filmmakers were aware of that during the making of the movie. If we tried to make every cool idea appeal to everyone, we wouldn't have cool things. Variety is a good thing - this way everyone can choose from a wide selection of different things
@@JohnDoe-zo8wj Bro how the fuck you can say the story is cliche if this is story from a book that was written in 1902
I hope we could see this in French cinema 😍 Loving Vincent was amazing but there they are 100% free for the style and I love polish folkore and culture so much, it gonna be insane 😍😍😍
"they are 100% free for the style" - how so? They follow the style of the painters from those times.
I didn't know ahah it was not specified 😅
@@LeLe-zw6tw Check 0:04 and look up Józef Chełmoński. :D
Thanks for the discover it is beautiful 😊
@@LeLe-zw6tw Happy you like it, LeLe! Other painters, whose work will appear on screen, are Ferdynand Ruszczyc and Leon Wyczółkowski. Perhaps you will like them too. :)
What great images! Once again painted with care and passion. It looks great and is already a masterpiece! Looking forward to the premiere in the Netherlands
👏👏
Do you think it will be on cinemas in Netherlands? Are there any cinemas playing forgein movies? I'm moving to Amsterdam in 2 months that's why I'd like to know. I'm Polish and I don't like to miss watching this masterpiece.
@@aleksandraszczesniak4901 There's plenty of independent cinemas in Amsterdam. I'm sure Kriterion or Lab111 or some other place will be showing this film.

The movie is made based on the Noble price awarded Polish writer: Władysław Reymont. It contains paintings of famous Polish artists that were painting the village like Malczewski. It's kind of love story... This is masterpiece! Hope it gets Oscar.
*Nobel prize
My great-great-grandparents lived next to Reymont (the author of "The peasants"), he lived on the one side of the Wolbórka River in the village of Prażki, and they lived on the other side in the village of Zamość. Furthemore, their names were Agnieszka (Jagna) and Antoni (the same names were given to the main characters in the book). As far as I know, they didn't like each other, or at least my great-great-grandfather didn't speak very flatteringly about Reymont - he said that Reymont was a slob, so I wouldn't be surprised if he described them there...😅
totally possible at least some inspiration....
Oh, tell more about it! 🤩😱
@@jq.msvr77 Well, It's a family from my father's side. I have some photographs of their son and his wife (her ancestors were probably Jews who converted to Catholicism many years ago or Germans) in my grandparents' house as well as a photo of my other great great grandfather. In this photo he's wearing a Russian Empire uniform - he served in the Russian army when Poland was under Russian rule. He also fought in the Russian-Japanese war in 1905. Sadly, I have no more information about them. However, I found out that from my mother's side I have very powerful polish aristocratic families among my ancestors, for example Lanckorońscy crest Zadora, Tęczyńscy crest Topór, counts Komorowscy crest Korczak, Firlejowie crest Lewart, and Leżeńscy crest Nałęcz. That's all I've found out during my research for now 😅
@@LucasCh.L.that’s awesome, thank you for sharing!
@@LucasCh.L. Only part of Poland was under Russian rule.
People who will translate it to scirpt should be not using our days english or other language or nobody will see how it realy looks like. In Polish actors use old Polish language not nowdays version
That's totally not true, it uses modern polish language with a few archaic words sprinkled here and there.
@@krzysztofwozny9742 no it's not learn Prus in English best in UK translate from XXc you will understand what I mean. This language by polish actors is strct from book
@@nextowayneb7319 At least in this trailer, there are only a few archaic words, otherwise it's the same as the language we speak now.
It just wasn't Standard Polish, but a local dialect. More akin to cockney than to Sheakspere's English.
We Poles like to "exchange views" whereever whenever about whatever, in the morning, noon, evening - :) in Polish, English, whatever language we speak :)
This the moment when i can say that I am proud that I am Polish!!!
I was in Cinema.
I am amazed of This, what is created. I though im goin for normal movie and here I had huge suprise. I am not regret it. This movie is a Masterpiece. Music is so Beautiful.
This is Must Watch !!!
This movie is masterpiece! Totally diffrent than what we have on hollywood these days
Congratulations for all artists.
Bravo!
Absolutely beautiful, incredible 😍
Can't wait! Music and animation are superb 👌
Imagine The Witcher build with such a vibes (music background)
It should have been done this way.
It looks so amazing and spectacular ❤️❤️ i'm looking forward to watch this in cinema ❤️
Where can people watch in the US?? I would love to support such an art piece and support Polish artists!
Culture as well
I read that US premiere is sheduled for the beggining of 2024
Wow! I loved Loving Vincent and bought the DVD, and this looks absolutely marvelous too! I just hope I can find it at a theater close enough, since my area rarely shows 'art house' type films, and Loving Vincent required a 45 minute trip.
Beautiful. Looking forward to watch it.
Fenomenalny, zachwycający, Arcydzieło…
Sony Pictures Classics acquired the rights to this film in North America, Latin America, the Middle East, Australia and New Zealand
This looks brilliant!!!!
So amazing .❤❤❤❤ Beyond beautiful
yooo wydaje się zajebiste, akurat w szkole mam niedługo omawiać tą lekture
Anyone outside Poland who wants to watch this - prepare yourself for a, uhh, quite depressing plot. I mean, the book got the nobel prize and it was well deserved, but just keep in mind that it's a really sad and striking story.
Prepare for this life. In the end, we all die. It is very sad, or is it?
Why would you spoil it for them?
Przede wszystkim książkowa bohaterka nie została zmuszona do małżeństwa.
@@zbigniewskrzek9770 była bardzo mocno namowiona przez matkę. Tak jak tutaj. To nie były realia, gdzie wybierales sobie życie. Małżeństwa były po to, by łączyć majątki, najlepiej z ludźmi, których pola sąsiadowały z twoimi aby tworzyły jeden pas ziemi. Dlatego było coś co u mnie w regionie nazywało sie 'namowiny'
@@mmgs1148 Było zupełnie inaczej niż w filmie,choćby dlatego,ze dziewczyna nie była w nikim zakochana. Gdy powiedziała raz i dwa,ze jej wszystko jedno ten czy inny,matka zaczęła zachwalać starego.
When will this film be released in Australia? There is a big Polish community here, even in a small city such as Geelong.
Loved the music in the trailer
Heard of the Witcher CD PROJECT RED game? Check the OST.
@@asia_oman i've played the game bro
This is a traditional Polish folk dance "oberek". A little crazy, very fast and lively. And at times more lyrical and thoughtful, another classic Polish folk dance called kujawiak. Plus the so-called white voices - a specific way of performing certain songs, e.g. wedding songs (treated a bit like funeral songs, because the girl is ending her free life)

Beautiful!
Reymont - 1924 Nobel Price.
This movie is spoken in a 100-year-old language, like people spoke 100 years ago. "Alice has a cat", you can say in 3! word's ways = 6 ways. Polish is about 200 000 000 - 300 000 000. 200 000 000! = inf.
The language was different than today. Technique using oil paints. Probably several hundred artists painted. Each film frame is a separate oil painting.
You don't like the Panorama of Racławice either?
This small painting. Only 120 m x 15 m = 1800 m2.

120 m x 15 m = 5-story house long 120 m.
Poles are able to do impossible things.
This a Polish car :) ruclips.net/video/Su97l9exHbI/видео.html
For Poles nothing is impossible. Kopernik, Kościuszko, Pułaski, Skłodowska-Curie, Czochralski etc. We lost 6,000,000 citizens during World War II. We had no help, we rebuilt.
Mogilev 1581. 198 Polish soldiers won against 45,000 aggressors.
Second Constitution in the world, 1791 (first without war). Receiving full rights for women, 1918. Vienna 1783, Grunwald 1410. Squadron 303, breaking of the Enigma. Building the American atomic bomb. The first oil company in the world. The safest country in Europe.

This is traditional animation taken to its ultimate form.
#MakeClassicAnimationGreatAgain
By traditional animators rotoscoping was considered cheating. And maybe by some still is.
They actually used cgi for most of it... and it shows
@@pierogipierogipierogi You are mistaken. There are no generated images.
Each frame and sequence is traditionally and digitally hand painted.
@@imaginary-unit No, it wasn't. My friend was one of the painters working on this film and at first every other frame was supposed to be AI generated but painters couldn't work fast enough so they were told to paint every fourth frame and the rest was AI. Thats why it looks like a filter.
@@pierogipierogipierogi Yes it really is. I don't know about your friend, but I've been painting frame by frame, day and night, getting it ready for you.

Po zwiastunie, widzę, że mam to samo.. Ciężki odbiór filmu.. Obraz mieni się i drażni wzrok.

Anyone who thinks that music is like from the Witcher game????
thats because its traditional polish slavic music, same type of music as in the witcher
@@Sasoriak. not only that one type. It is like eg. Trávnica but you have also lullabies or carols but also songs for parties like getting married etc.

@@bartoszwojciechowski2270 Taki ze mnie purysta, jak z tego oberek. Nie miałabym nic przeciwko zmianom (muzyka w starej adaptacji Chłopów nie zawsze była ludowa, a mi to nie przeszkadzało), o ile twórcy mają jakąś wiedzę na temat tego co zmieniają i ma to jakieś uzasadnienie. A tu tego nie widzę.
Witcher will enter at the end 🐺 😉
Jestem fanem książki ,,Chłopi". Jedna z moich ulubionych lektur pokazująca zwyczaje polskie ale ta wersja filmu to spłaszczenie piękna tej powieści.
Niby tak, ale jak inaczej przedłużyć życie tej książce? Młodzi nie czytają i to tragiczne
A jak inaczej sfilmować książkę z ponad kilkoma tysiącami stron? Już i tak jak dla mnie w filmie sceny były wyjątkowo krótkie, a film trwa 2 godziny.
Please can tell what is the soundtrack in the trailer? 😢
It's music composed by Lukasz "LUC" Rostkowski

I see that they show her here as a very delicate girl, while she was somewhere inside, but truly she was also very easy girl, that didn't care about other ppl feelings😉
Well, did other people care about her feelings? Not really
y'all just hate women, she was literally forced into marriage at 19 with a 66yo creep. she was kind, sweet and had an artistic soul.
@@stvrmistic3700 me? Actually I am a woman🙃
Question: Did you read a book? Do it first and don't tell me that she was so lovely. Ok. Somehow she was. Yes, she was Different pretty and Artistic soul. But how can you call someone KIND who is looking for Your husband and don't give a shit about anything? Independent?🤷♀️
I know that mentality of ppl from Lipce was a bit medieval, because they accused her for some silly things. Somehow I like her and I Pitty her. It's not that I don't have any positive feelings to Jagna. I agree that she was a victim of her youth and prettyness, but she wasn't so crystal clear.
Film was really great, but it's just my opinion🙂
And @a.m.z1710 I know that, for example her Mother, didn't care about Jagna's feelings, but she also spoiled. And men also didn't care. Ok. And that's the way it finished.
And Btw. Maciej Boryna was 56🙃
I'm sure it'll be great, but the actors got a serious case of a face that knows what instagram is
The frames from the film imitate Polish paintings from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries (excellent, by the way), deeply immersed in Polish folklore. This trend in Polish painting was called Young Poland. I look at it and see these images, specific motifs, compositions, colours, faces. And women are beautiful, because Polish women are generally beautiful. In the film, they are normal Polish actresses, their beauty is average and very typical for Poland . And the main character is just a real beauty (and this is how she is described in the novel, it also has significance for her fate) and she also likes to paint her lips (using natural dyes, which Polish peasant women liked to do) and generally has an artistic, free soul (this last one becomes the cause of her troubles). By the way, the novel "Peasants" won the Nobel Prize in 1924 and is excellent.
@@alh6255 I never said they weren't beautiful, just very modern-looking

I'm sorry to say but I don't like it. I don't understand the need of repainting the movie when the result is so much close to the cinematography material. With Vincent it was different because it really gave the flavour of his paintings, here I don't see it. Also it seems to me very sweet and kind of kitchy. All the women are beautiful and then try to sell it like a Hollywood movie when in reality it's a masterpiece of writing and showing hard life on the countryside at that time and cruel laws they believed in. It's amazing story, let's go and read the book first people. I highly recommend it! But let's see maybe the movie itself will turn out to be good 😊
I guess the idea was to show the works of Polish painters from that era. Everybody knows van Gogh, nobody has heard of Chełmoński.

@@paunitka7 Chelmonski, Wyczolkowski, Mehoffer - they are recognized and appreciated by art historians and collectors around the world, but they are not associated with popular culture (except Poland) in the same way as van Gogh.
@@alh6255 "they are not associated with popular culture" - which, I hope, this movie will change. Well, it already has - those names have appeared in a RUclips comment section. Isn't it awesome?
Perhaps you have this impression because the style is realism, it was based on the art of Chełmoński, who portrayed village life in the 19th century. The plot itself is based on the novel by Raymond, the famous Polish Nobel Prize winner. It tells about the life of the peasantry in the 19th century. Animation brought these two artists together.
Judging by the trailers, the costumes and the houses are quite inaccurate to the setting and the music is Slavic, but not Polish. If you ask me how I know, the book the movie is based on has plenty of very detailed descriptions of what everything looked like. Also, I watched the 1973 adaptation, the director of which cared a lot about historical accuracy. And I'm into Polish folk culture in general.
I'm not trying to stop anyone from enjoying the movie if they want to, but I just want people to know some liberties were taken and the movie doesn't reflect the reality.
I don't know how houses looked like in XX century near Łódź, but in southern Poland (Galicja) they looked exactly like in this moovie. Maybe little bit more poor. My father in his early childhood lived in similiar 😅
As for music... imagine that no one in the countryside created music with a film background in mind 😉 Using traditional kujawiak or oberek would not reflect the mood of the film at all.
@@imcbocian That's the problem. Masovian houses looked different. You can see them in the 1973 adaption of "The Peasants", which was actually filmed in the area where the author of the book used to live.
About the music, they could've adapted traditional Polish music into something more fitting for a movie, which has been done before in multiple films and worked.
@@meridaskywalker7816 Does it have to be Masovian, though? The costumes aren't designed to be from a particular region either. I think they focused on the effect, which is good, because they are filmmakers rather than ethnographers. If people are impressed by the movie, they might start researching the subject more.
@@paunitka7 They're wasting the author's effort put into describing the details of that specific region. Also, if the director wants to interest people in Polish culture, I wish the depicted it as it is was, not a commercialized version.
@@meridaskywalker7816 The book is still there for anyone to read. I think the director wanted to make an impressive movie with the use of that culture. A culture which does not exist anymore anyway. These days, there is disco polo instead.
I don't want to provide you with a spoiler
(I read once all four parts of "Chłopi" in High School and hate this book though it is a classical masterpiece)
