Kreskostoria Polski is a fact based history of Poland told in a completely unexpected way. Sick of dry lessons and emotionless textbook summaries? Curious who first yelled “Where’s the cross?” in Polish? Ready to uncover wild, little-known chapters of Polish history?

A second-grade class is assigned an essay titled “What I Want to Be When I Grow Up,” and pupils Anusiak, Konieczko, Maślana, and Czesio spend the evening pouring their dreams onto paper. The next morning, as they proudly carry their essays past fortune-teller Jowita’s parlor, she unexpectedly reveals each of their futures thirty years hence, and none of her visions match what they wrote.
