The Altar Boys (Ministranci)
What happens when four altar boys decide to save the world – and secretly eavesdrop on confessions in the process? In Piotr Domalewski’s award-winning THE ALTAR BOYS, frustrated teenagers from a bleak housing estate transform themselves into self-appointed avengers. Disillusioned by the indifference of adults and the Church towards social injustice, they install a bugging device in the confessional. Armed with Bible quotes, youthful idealism, and Robin Hood fantasies, they set out to help the weak and punish sinners. But the deeper they delve into the secrets of their neighbourhood, the more the line between justice and vigilante justice becomes blurred. With the energy of a coming-of-age film, the wit of a black comedy, and the visual style of a superhero comic, THE ALTAR BOYS explores faith, guilt, responsibility, and the desire to make the world a better place. Set against a backdrop of prefab housing estate realism and balaclavas, the result is a film that is as entertaining as it is clever, about a generation that no longer wants to wait for change. Winner of the Golden Lions at the Gdynia Film Festival – provocative, humorous, and full of youthful vigour.
