Private Project

Each of Scars

Documentary about polish rapper, who became huge star by, or better to say thanks to his complicated past. Each of the memory chosen by director is another scene in the movie and is realized in another movie form. At the screen we can see fabular scene, musical and even talk-show form. Definitely worth to see.

Director Statement

The idea for the film "Each of Scars" was created during the production of the first documentary about the same hero, who is kind of phenomeno in Poland, by the way. I mean, there is no single person in this country who would not know who Popek is. And I think it's great.
This little badass boy, with apparentely no future, told himself, that one day everyone will call him "King". And it's happen.
His story amazed me and I just needed to meet this guy.
When I answered call from a music producer, Matheo, if I could make a music video for them in UK I didn't think twice.
I packed myself and jest get into it.
The journey started there, while making his success really happens! It was always something magic in this for me.
It was back then, that a friendship developed between him and and me, which was an inspiration to disenchant him to a wider audience and to present him from a side that he only made known to a few, closest ones.
After really deep interview, when he told me about whole darkness in his life, the decision was made.
I'm going to make this movie.
