So uh, how did that thing with Poland getting worked up about one of the twins who ran the country dying in a plane crash end up resolving?

Urban Contemporary Art by BEZT
Bezt was born in 1987 in Turek, Poland. He met Sainer in Lodz during their common courses at the Academy of Fine Art. They created Etam Cru (for crew) but this art collaboration doesn’t restrict them to create on their own. With time Betz and Sainer style became similar (that might be one of the reasons they are great friends). They both combine street art techniques with more traditional oil and acrylic painting.

I totally get that first picture of the girl leaning into the pew in tedium in front of the Polish stained glass
I grew up going to the American Częstochowa when my dad wanted to go to confession that week and there was stained glass on either side and I was confused cause the right half had Founding Fathers and “1776” and the left were cavalry fights that ???
And only later I figured that was Teddy Kosciuszko

Sexmission (Polish: Seksmisja) is a 1984 Polish cult comedy science fiction action film. It also contains a hidden political satirelayer specific to the time and place of its production.
The two protagonists, Max and Albert, played by Jerzy Stuhr and Olgierd Łukaszewicz, respectively, submit themselves in 1991 to the first human hibernation experiment. Instead of being awakened a few years later as planned, they wake up in the year 2044, in a post-nuclear world. By then, humans have retreated to underground living facilities, and, as a result of subjection to a specific kind of radiation, all males have died out. Women reproduce through parthenogenesis, living in an oppressive feminist society, where theapparatchiks teach that women suffered under males until males were removed from the world.
The cold-shoulder treatment Max and Albert receive from the women, their character differences and specific realities of future life serve as background of many humorous encounters. The plot thickens when it turns out that the females have no interest in the rebirth of men, and that for the good of society, the two males are to be killed or “naturalised”, i.e. undergo a sex-change. While trying to break away, Max and Albert find out the impact of their masculinity on women. With one of the scientists on their side, the men choose freedom and prefer to escape and die outside. In doing so, they discover the truth: radiation was just a feminist lie to keep women underground and the surviving male population were “naturalised” into women by the feminists when they took power in the post-war period. As a result of discovering the truth, both Max and Albert begin thinking of bringing the world back to normal.
