“Sługa Narodu” (“The Servant of the People”) is a funny and illuminating story of a history teacher who, as a result of sheer coincidence, and to his own surprise, wins the presidential election. Within one day, he becomes the country leader. From now on, he will not only have to face an army of shrewd and experienced politicians, officials and advisors, but he will also be forced to handle and resist the political machine, full of comforts, temptations, and privileges that his family would all like to take advantage of.

The Polish version of “Sługa Narodu” (“The Servant of the People”) – similarly to the original version – will also star well-known actors, it will be full of clever dialogues, funny situations, as well as accurate and sharp observations, not only of the political world, but also our dreams, desires and inclinations.
