THREE KINGS
POLISH TITLE: TRZEJ KRÓLOWIE
UPCOMING
When entertaining one's loyal servants, keeping ideal garden or the easiest mathematical calculations are too much even for three royal heads, the mysterious light of the Star seems to be salvation from routine. The three kings: naive Caspar, shy Melchior and nervous Balthazar set out on a journey lead by light of the Star. During their journey, much like obstacle course, they have to learn they are happy only when they use their skills and share them with their friends. Inspiration, and at the same time a unique element of the film, is an original 19th century pastoral. The film, though based on a biblical parable, is still far from pathos- it is mainly a vivid tale of adventures of the title three friends.
