So true

Never ever believe someone who lives by marketing religion.Thats all I have to say.We need humans,not priests

A gem of new Polish cinema.

Three Catholic priests on intertwining paths, covering the whole known spectrum from sexual abuse to lighthearted nonsense. Bribing money in supermarket shopping bags. Funny and heart wrenching. A gem of new Polish cinema.

Stirring movie

If movie can bring me both to tears and to laugh it is a great movie.

Also I judged character wrongly until the end - movie is also surprising.

Only drawback is too many swears- it could have been expressed similar level withouth them.

This movie shows the truth...

As a Pole I can say that what you will see is quite possible to happen every day in Poland. However, if you will watch this movie carefully you will see that not all priests are bad, just like not every human being is bad. Most of Polish reviews criticize this movie for "witch hunting" of priests in Poland. I think those people saw a wrong movie because it clearly shows two sides of a coin. Watch open minded, I am sure you will see a value in it.

WARNING, this is not comedy. Great film however.

This is listed as a comedic film but quite frankly I have never seen anything less comic. Don't get me wrong it is a fantastic film and very powerful. But please label this correctly to people or I'm afraid this could be an issue.

Trivia
During the 2018 Gdynia Polish Film Festival, 'Kler' was met with the longest applause of the audience which should have given it the Zloty Klakier (Golden Clapper) award, presented each year by public Radio Gdansk. However, the Managing Director of Radio Gdansk decided not to award any movie with Golden Clapper that year, citing 'an impossibility of objective assessment of survey accuracy' as a pretext . Commentators have connected it with the controversial subject of the movie, which was criticized by the part of ruling politicians in Poland, who decide about manning of the public media.

Goofs
Scenes taking place in and around churches were shot in the Czech Republic. In one of them a Czech road sign "give way" is visible (a white triangle with red border) instead of a Polish one (a yellow triangle with a red border).
