Abstract

The article presents the presence of the interwar period as an epoch in Polish films and series created both during the communist period and after 1989. Both those films for which the social and political events of the Second Polish Republic were the main theme, as well as those in which the interwar reality was only a background that added color or was only mentioned, were indicated. The first part of the article focuses largely on theoretical considerations. Then, the socio-political situation in the following decades was analyzed in parallel, as well as the binding guidelines of state bodies regarding the official narrative of the interwar period in the Polish People’s Republic. While formulating the conclusions, the author drew attention to aspects related to the interwar period, which, in her opinion, are lacking in contemporary Polish cinema.
