Amateurs

Krzysiek Biuro Rzeczy Osobistych Theater (created by intellectually disabled actors) is the winner of a festival, in which the prize is a performance in a professional theater. With great joy and expectations, Krzysiek and his actors are currently working on a new play "Zorba." It would be great to perform it on a real stage. It turns out, however, that the director of the theater, when offering them assistance, sets certain conditions, and when rehearsals begin, a few professional actors take part: Bartoszek - an aging actor, Olbińska - a former star who now plays lesser roles, and Wiktoria - a star who was acquired by the theater director.

"Over the past few years we have seen film casts made up entirely of deaf actors, leading to blind, physically handicapped, and Autistic actors also representing themselves on screen instead of being played by able actors. Amateurs may be the first time in which the cast is predominantly people with Down Syndrome or learning disabilities - and yet it doesn’t feel like an exploitation film at all."
