Interview With "Closure" Filmmaker Michał Marczak

“Closure” is a 2026 Polish documentary film directed and produced by Michał Marczak. The film follows Daniel Dymiński, who searches Poland's Vistula River after his teenage son, Krzysztof Dymiński, goes missing in May 2023, torn between fear that his son is dead and hope that he may still be alive. CCTV footage taken on the morning of his disappearance shows Krzysztof standing on a bridge, but not whether he jumped or walked away, and Daniel continues to investigate long after the police and local media have stopped searching. The film had its world premiere in the World Cinema Documentary Competition at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival, where it received widespread critical praise. Marczak was kind enough to spend some time speaking with us about his work and experience making the film, which you can watch or listen to below. Please be sure to check out the film, which is now playing in theaters from 1-2 Special. Thank you, and enjoy!
