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 colorful 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.

Englisch A little girl from a village where beauty is a curse that reveals the true nature of individuals and society. A film that goes to the very core of the characters, traditions, times, and the village. The visuals are breathtaking, and for the entire running time they (surprisingly to me) don't overindulge. Especially when paired with Rostkowski's mesmerizing "folk-horror" underscore. Add to that the riveting performances and the flow of traditional drama. This is how to adapt an over hundred-year-old literary classic for a contemporary audience. The goal is not to be a literal transcription, but to capture the spirit and message in cinematic language. Few in recent years have managed to do this in such a compelling and engaging way. ()
