Dzień dziecka księdza Jana Kaczkowskiego

DIRECTOR: Artur Wierzbicki

SCREENPLAY: Artur Wierzbicki

RUNTIME: 1 hour 16 minutes

A moving, personal portrait of Father Jan Kaczkowski.

A man of extraordinary sensitivity, courage and humor who, even while facing his own illness, gave strength to others. Previously unpublished recordings, family photographs and archival interviews reveal the story of a son, a friend and a priest. We return to his childhood, meet his family and discover the experiences that shaped his view of the world. Animations based on young Jaś’s childhood drawings give the story a particularly intimate character. It is a film about love, closeness and the need to be there for another person. For those moved by „Johnny”, it is a chance to meet the real Father Jan — through his own voice, memories and preserved images. Poland, 2026, documentary, 76 min. In Polish with English subtitles.
