Debtors
Poland2023documentary24'Konkurs polski (2024)
In Poland, only two out of ten debtors obliged to pay child support actually pay it in full. While preparing to stage a court scene with his mother, the director meets people like himself, who have never received any child support awarded by court verdicts. This situation is used to tell their stories in the documentary. ‘You are not my child’, ‘you were never nice to me’ or ‘I don’t have money’ were among the excuses used by fathers to wriggle out of paying child support. Can anything be done to change this situation in Poland?
