Mug
aka Twarz
First screened in June 2019
Director: Małgorzata Szumowska. Cast: Mateusz Kościukiewicz, Małgorzata Gorol, Agnieszka Podsiadlik, Anna Tomaszewska, Dariusz Chojnacki, Robert Talarczyk, Roman Gancarczyk, Iwona Bielska, Martyna Krzysztofik. Screenplay: Małgorzata Szumowska and Michal Englert.

 Twitter Capsule: Disappoints after the tension and conceptual daring of Szumowska's last few films, especially Body and Elles. Has its moments.

VOR: ③  Szumowska has had terrific luck with festival prizes and almost none in commercial distribution. Her work, especially here, merits a middle ground.
