A visually stunning adaptation of Nobel Prize winner Władysław Reymont’s monumental novel.

Jagna, a free-spirited farmer girl, has to marry the older and richer farmer Boryna, even though she is in love with his son Antek. Her life becomes more and more a battle for independance and Jagna has to face disapproval, gossip and jealousy that comes with a patriarchal village.

This film, made by the creators of Loving Vincent, is based on paintings from the Young Poland period, which perfectly reflect the atmosphere of the novel.
