The Stroke(2024)

The Stroke is a Polish dramedy following Jacek, a charismatic Warsaw foodie and TV personality whose wit masks deeper self-destructive impulses. Surrounded by an equally eccentric circle of artistic friends, Jacek navigates the pretensions and contradictions of Poland's cultural elite—those who regard Warsaw as the only authentic Polish city. Created by playwright and screenwriter Pawel Demirski, the series offers a sharp, affectionate satire of artistic life while exploring themes of ambition, friendship, and personal unraveling. Rather than depicting burnout, Demirski crafts a protagonist who remains vitally alive despite his flaws, someone convinced the best is still ahead. The show balances comedy with genuine emotional weight, offering a distinctive portrait of contemporary Warsaw's bohemian circles that resists easy comparison to other television.
