Absolute Beginners (2023)

It’s the summer before college and besties Lena (Martyna Byczkowska) and Niko (Bartlomiej Deklewa) are busy trying to create an admissions movie for the film school they hope to attend. Their mothers have also been friends since high school, but it looks like this might be their last summer all together as Lena’s parents are planning to move to Italy. While at a Polish sea resort, in the midst of filming, the two encounter an aspiring basketball player named Igor (Jan Salasinski), who’s presence starts to put a strain Lena and Niko’s friendship. Martyna's T’n’A comes out a number of times, including during a skinny dip in the ocean with both guys and a late night bonfire where she and Bartlomiei burn their clothes. Martyne also has an underlying sapphic moment with Paulina Krzyżańska, who earlier gets a face job from Jan on her bathroom floor. Also going nude on this beach are Katarzyna Warnke, Yuli Owiaks, and Anna Krotoska. We just Googled “nude beaches in Poland” and it turns out there’s a bunch! Time to book a little vacay!
