Krasnal Sylwester Chęciński, Dwarf statue at Dolnośląskie Centrum Filmowe, Wrocław, Poland.

The bronze figure depicts film director Sylwester Chęciński seated in a chair, holding a script and megaphone atop a spherical stone post.

Unveiled on April 20, 2022, this statue commemorates Sylwester Chęciński, who directed 16 feature films including the popular trilogy about Kargul and Pawlak families.

The statue adds to Wrocław's collection of dwarfs, which emerged in the 1980s as part of the Orange Alternative movement against communist rule.

Located at the Lower Silesian Film Center, visitors can find the dwarf near seat number 6 in the Warsaw hall, where Chęciński frequently watched films.

The unveiling ceremony included a screening of Chęciński's early student film 'Man Does Not Die,' featuring actor Zbigniew Cybulski in the lead role.
