What happens

Tomorrow's Weather (Polish: Pogoda na jutro) is a 2003 Polish comedy-drama film co-written and directed by Jerzy Stuhr, who also plays the leading role. It is about a Polish dissident who has lived in a monastery for 17 years, and experiences cultural clash when he returns to his family in post-communist Poland. Filming took place 11–29 March and 29 April–16 May 2003 in Warsaw and at the Dominican monastery of Kraków. The film was released in Polish cinemas on 3 October 2003. Robert Koehler of Variety wrote that the film "jabs at nouveau capitalism, the media and youth culture" but "goes overboard itself, with a lunge toward Swiftian satire that frustratingly tends to hold back the laughs".
