An unconventional film about an equally unconventional artist, Polish surrealist painter Zdzisław Beksiński (Andrzej Seweryn), famous for his dark post-apocalyptic works. 

Based on a bizarre true story, “The Last Family” is like no other biopic. Set over 28 years, the film places surrealist art in the background and focuses on the artist’s complex family dynamics.

Beksiński, a cult artist known for creating disturbing artworks and fantasizing of hard core sexual experiences, is a quiet family man. He is a devoted husband and stoic father living in a modest Warsaw apartment with his wife Zofia (Aleksandra Konieczna) and their elderly mothers, while also keeping an eye on his neurotic son Tomasz (Dawid Ogrodnik), who lives in a nearby highrise. Zofia constantly worries about her overly sensitive son who is slowly building a name for himself as a cult DJ and film translator who brings western pop culture from behind the Iron Curtain. After his first suicide attempt, Zdzisław and Zofia struggle to prevent their son from hurting himself.
