"Lalka" (2026), dir. Maciej Kawalski; distributor Kino Świat · claimed on Oct 21, 2026 · original source
The screen adaptation of Prus's novel entered cinemas on 30 September 2026. On 21 October Rzeczpospolita wrote that estimates of the final result point to about 3–3.5 million viewers, and on 5 November Filmweb assessed that a result above 3 million "is still within reach". According to the distributor Kino Świat, by 12 November nearly 2.8 million viewers had seen the film, more than any other film in Poland this year; the Box Office Raport ranking gives 2,731,787. In its sixth weekend (6–8 November) the film drew 67,447 viewers and finished ahead of the next three titles by fewer than 8 thousand. The matter will be settled by the total attendance at the end of 2026 as reported by the distributor and confirmed in independent box office compilations.
