About me

I am honored to be the recipient of numerous acting awards in Poland, with the prestigious Best Actress Award at the Gdynia Film Festival at the forefront, which I received for my role in Splinters (Drzazgi). This festival, often considered the Polish equivalent of the Oscars, has recognized the talents of directors such as Andrzej Wajda, Agnieszka Holland, and Paweł Pawlikowski, an Academy Award and BAFTA winner. It is also worth mentioning that the film Gods(Bogowie), in which I appeared, won the Best Film and Best Director awards, enjoying significant commercial success in Polish cinemas.

In Poland, I gained recognition for my role in the local edition of the iconic Saturday Night Live, as well as for portraying the legendary singer Maryla Rodowicz in the TV series Osiecka. My most recent roles include appearances in two Netflix productions and in the film Znachor, a new adaptation of a well-known classic.

I am also known to audiences from films such as Gods (Bogowie), Black Thursday (Czarny czwartek), and TV series including The Crown of Kings (Korona Królów), Father Mateusz (Ojciec Mateusz), Galeria, Plebania, Chichot losu, and Apetyt na życie.

Additionally, I have acted in several international films, including Simone: The Journey of the Century (Simone - le voyage du siècle), directed by Olivier Dahan. Most recently, I had the pleasure of starring in two Netflix series and in Znachor, a remake of a well-known production.
