AGATA KULESZA and BARTOSZ BIELENIA in a new international project! | 15.05.2025

The artists join forces in the unique film The Time That Never Came, directed by Julia Rogowska.
The dystopian melodrama, scheduled for release in 2026, will focus on a couple in a world obsessed with youth.
– Sara (Kulesza) has decided to age naturally, while Oskar, her partner, has undergone anti-aging treatment. Years later, when they meet again – separated by time but bound by the past – Sara embarks on a journey to regain her lost love, face buried emotions and find freedom.
Ed (Bielenia) is a calm and resourceful driver who helps Sara escape from the Shelter. During their journey together to the City of Youth, unexpected events begin to change her plans.

Agata Kulesza in an interview with Variety said: “I sincerely hope that we can create a universal story that makes us reflect on where older people are in today’s world and whether we place too much importance on youth, which from the very beginning is a race we are all doomed to lose. I understand that when you are young, you don’t think about aging – but aging comes to all of us.”

The film will not only be a love story, but also a deep reflection on the place of older people in today’s world.
This is a unique project that is sure to move and intrigue viewers.
