Marcin Urbanke

I come from Silesia and the Mountains — surrounded by the darkness of the mines, but also by the glow of mountain peaks.

Acting was shown to me by my oldest brother, who never let on
that he was suffering from a terminal depression.
He taught me how to hide what is most vulnerable.
Not wanting to follow in his footsteps, I decided to share that vulnerability and turn it into strength.
It was the most painful lesson of the craft in my life.

I run so I don’t lose my mind — it is my form of meditation.
Beyond acting, photography gives me profound fulfillment, especially portrait photography.
I really like it when people stop pulling faces and simply are — that’s when the best photos are made.

Thank you for your attention — it is a very valuable commodity these days.
