Andrzej Wajda
Andrzej Wajda (Suwałki, Poland, 1926) moved to Krakow in 1946 and studied
painting at the Academy of Art. Between 1950 and 1954 he studied direction at the Łódź Film School. In 1954 he debuted as a feature film director with A Generation, the first part of a trilogy about life in Poland during the Second World War. In 1981 he was
awarded the Golden Palm at the Cannes Film Festival with the film Man of Iron, which goes deeper into the inquiry, begun in 1977 with Man of Marble, about the manipulations
carried out by the propaganda of the Polish regime.

The Revenge (film)
2002 film
For other uses, see Revenge (disambiguation).
The Revenge is the English title for Zemsta, a film released in 2002, directed by Andrzej Wajda. This film is an adaptation of a perennially popular stage farce of the same name by the Polish dramatist and poet Aleksander Fredro.
Written in a sharp, ironic style, The Revenge portrays those national characteristics that in time brought on many of Poland's national tragedies. Written for the stage, Wajda has changed very little and transferred practically the entirety of the work to the screen.
Plot
Raptusiewicz (Janusz Gajos) resides in one half of a castle with the other half inhabited by his hated rival Rejent Milczek (Andrzej Seweryn). Raptusiewicz wishes to marry Podstolina (Katarzyna Figura), the widow of the Lord High Steward, for her money, while Podstolina herself seeks a wealthy match. Regent Milczek's wish, on the other hand, is to bring about the union of his son Wacław (Rafał Królikowski) with Podstolina. To complicate matters more, Wacław is in love with Klara (Agata Buzek) - ward and niece of Raptusiewicz, who took her in following the death of her parents - and the feeling is mutual. The plot thickens when Klara turns into Papkin's (Roman Polanski) declared object of love.
