Contemporary film settlement of the twentieth‑century history, especially of experiences of World War II and Polish People’s Republic, on the one hand continues the tradition started by Polish Film School of de‑mythologizing trend, on the other hand – seeks new means of aesthetic expression. Through the analysis of Rose, dir. W. Smarzowski, Aftermath, dir. W. Pasikowski and Ida, dir. P. Pawlikowski, I present how the recent Polish cinema struggles with the collective trauma. As my research tools, I used concepts proposed by M. Hirsch, J.K. Olick, D. LaCapra and A. Landsberg, among others. That allowed me to take a look at relations between the protagonists inside diegesis, but also to reflect on the situation of the Polish cinema, which still struggles with, what M. Janion defined as “the post‑Romantic neurosis of Polish society”. However, I have tried to show, that “the politics of regret”, “the prosthetic memory” and, dictated by the logic of capitalism, the realities of postmemory in popular culture, may have also positive overtones in highlighting marginalised history.

Przedmiotem mojego zainteresowania są reakcje, które wzbudziły dwa filmy – Pokłosie oraz Ida. Twierdzę, że kontrowersje, jakie wywołały, są wynikiem przyjmowania pozytywistycznej koncepcji historii i zawodu historyka. Staram się także pokazać, że umieszczenie obu filmów w innej perspektywie – studiów nad pamięcią i filozofii historii proponowanej przez Franka Ankersmita – pozwala wydobyć ich pozytywny potencjał dla wspólnoty budowanej jako przestrzeń nowoczesnej demokracji.

My interest here is to assess the critical reactions raised by the two recent Polish movies: Aftermath and Ida. I claim that controversies that have been brought about by them are the result of a positivistic view on history and on profession of a historian. I try to show that putting those movies in a different perspective – that is the studies on memory and Frank Ankersmit’s philosophy of history – should allow us to reveal their affirmative potential in building a community meant as a space of modern democracy.
