What happens

We're All Christs (Wszyscy jesteśmy Chrystusami) is a 2006 Polish comedy-drama film directed by Marek Koterski. It is the seventh in a nine-part series of films about the character Adaś Miauczyński, created by Koterski. Each story showcases a different aspect or era of his life, often with little continuity between them. We're All Christs focuses on the protagonist's alcohol addiction and his relationship with his son, Sylwuś, with emphasis on the way the father's alcoholism has caused lifelong trauma for the pair. Miauczyński is portrayed by two actors in the film, Marek Kondrat and Andrzej Chyra, each of whom embodies him at a different stage of his life. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
