What could be a better way of depicting a biography of a cabaret and movie star than a musical drama? Glitter, scandals, roaring twenties’ music and amazing acting: the film contains all that and much more. It depicts the life of Eugene Bodo – the Polish star of the interwar period and presents his pathway to success. His career was international the same as his origin. Eugene’s father was Swiss while his mother was Polish. In the interwar period, Bodo was a major star in Europe since he was an actor, a director, a producer, a businessman and the central figure of numerous gossip and scandals. Viewers can follow his difficult decisions and life choices which include not only running away from home, early steps on stage in a provincial theatre or love affairs but also his relationship with a possessive mother. Moreover, the drama contains original footage of Bodo’s performances and movies. The movie follows the 13-episode series which was completed earlier this year and was very enthusiastically received by the Polish audience.
