THE DOLL
(Lalka)
is the ambitious adaptation of Bolesław Prus’ famous classic novel.
Directed by Paweł Maślona the series is set against the backdrop of 19th
century Warsaw and follows the complex tension between the wealthy
merchant Stanisław Wokulski (Tomasz Schuchardt) and the aristocratic
Izabela Łącka (Sandra Drzymalska).
Written between 1887 and 1889, the
book tells the story of Stanisław Wokulski, a successful merchant who
finds himself torn between his
progressive ideals and his infatuation
with Izabela Łęcka, a haughty and vacuous aristocrat. Covering the
themes of unrequited love, class conflict and
Poland’s stagnation under
the Third Partition the six episode saga is set to air towards the end
of the year. You can see glimpses of the new series in Netflix
