Throughout the last years Borys Szyc<\/b> has become one of the most interesting Polish actors. He is able to use his talent to transform himself both into a respectable psychiatrist and a converted alcoholic; he is credible as an honorable policeman and a soldier of the mob. Enacting handsome lovers comes to him naturally, though he does not have any problems with playing characters after serious traumas. Borys Szyc<\/b> smoothly goes from comedy to drama, from action to romance, and he likes to experiment with various genres – he starred in a horror movie (\u201cHyena”<\/b>, dir. Grzegorz Lewandowski) and a film adaptation of classic literature (\u201cMaiden Vows”<\/b>, dir. Filip Bajon). Soon he will conquer
the cinemas in Polish blockbuster \u201cBattle of Warsaw 1920″<\/b>, directed by Jerzy Hoffman. <\/p>\n
The actor’s most prominent role, however, is Silny from Xawery \u017bu\u0142awski’s \u201cWojna polsko-ruska”<\/b>. It won him Polish Film Award \u201cEagle”<\/b> and Best Actor award at Polish Feature Film Festival in Gdynia<\/b>. <\/p>\n

Szyc started his acting career as a nine-year-old boy in Juliusz Machulski’s <b.\u201cKingsajz"<\/b>, though he became widely recognized only at the beginning
of the previous decade due to his performances in Konrad Niewolski’s \u201cSymmetry”<\/b>, Juliusz Machulski’s \u201cVinci”<\/b> and Maciej Dejczer’s TV show \u201cThe Officer”<\/b>. Nowadays, directors and producers struggle to have him on their projects, and each subsequent role makes him even more popular. Apart from \u201cBattle of Warsaw 1920″<\/b> he stars in a dark thriller \u201cIxjana”<\/b> by Jerzy and Micha\u0142 Skolimowski, \u0141ukasz Karwowski’s Polish response to \u201cThe Hangover”<\/b> entitled \u201cKac Wawa”<\/b>, and international co-production \u201cSeptember Eleven 1638″<\/b>, directed by Renzo Martinelli. <\/p>\n
Borys Szyc<\/b> is a true artist who is constantly seeking new ways of expression. His career expands not only to cinema, television and theatre (among other roles in Wsp\u00f3\u0142czesny Theatre in Warsaw he was in plays of Shakespeare and Kafka), but also to music industry. In 2009 his debut CD \u201cFeelin’ Good”<\/b> became a hit in Poland. It included duets with Justyna Steczkowska and Ewa Bem. Together with Natasza Urba\u0144ska, his co-star of \u201cBattle of Warsaw 1920″<\/b>, he recorded \u201c\u015apiewka 1920″<\/b> which is the film’s official song. Szyc’s<\/b> distinctive voice and great acting talent made him also in demand for Polish dubbing of animated feature films. <\/p>\n
His role in Rafael Lewandowski’s \u201cThe Mole”<\/b> has been recently acknowledged with Best Actor award at IFF Montrea<\/b>l. It emphasized what we in Poland know already – that Borys Szyc<\/b> is a true artist who is always aiming at perfection. We are extremely proud that he will join us as a member of the Jury of Student Etudes Competition<\/b> at the upcoming 19th Plus Camerimage Festival<\/b>. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
