Gorky Resort (Pojedynek) (2026) 1-Disc Set Blu-ray

Set in the chaotic onset of World War II in 1939, Gorky Resort (originally titled Pojedynek) is a tense, atmospheric historical thriller directed by acclaimed filmmaker Lukasz Palkowski. The film follows Karol Grabowski (Jakub Gierszal), a world-renowned young Polish pianist and officer who is captured by Soviet forces and held in a former monastery turned internment camp. There, he becomes the primary target of NKVD Major Vasily Zarubin (Aidan Gillen), an ambitious agent determined to break Karol’s spirit and force his capitulation to serve as a propaganda victory. What follows is a sophisticated, high-stakes psychological duel of manipulation, threats, and false promises, where every decision carries life-or-death consequences for thousands of Polish prisoners.

This stunning Blu-ray release brings the film’s striking ‘wartime noir’ cinematography and intense performances to life with pristine high-definition video and immersive audio. Starring an exceptional international cast including Jakub Gierszal, Aidan Gillen, Julia Pietrucha, and Boguslaw Linda, Gorky Resort is a powerful exploration of honor, resistance, and survival under the pressure of a ruthless totalitarian system.
