Jan Komasa’s English‑language debut, Anniversary, premiered at the Kinoteka Polish Film Festival and is now streaming on Netflix. The dystopian drama follows a politically divided DC family as a fascist movement, The Change, rises from a controversial thesis, leading to a rapid collapse of democracy within five years. The film boasts a star‑studded cast—including Diane Lane, Kyle Chandler, and Dylan O’Brien—and delivers strong performances, though critics argue its compressed timeline and limited world‑building weaken its impact. Despite narrative flaws, the movie has sparked conversation about political polarization and adds prestige content to Netflix’s catalog.
