Director: Maciej Kawulski
Beneath the floorboards of an unassuming house lies a school where imagination is the only entrance exam, and one curious girl is about to enroll.
What is Kleks Academy about?
An unremarkable girl stumbles onto a hidden path that leads into Kleks Academy, a place built entirely from fairy tales, invention, and unruly creativity. Guided by an eccentric, gifted teacher, she starts to uncover talents she never knew she carried, while the Academy's strange classrooms and stranger rules test her in ways an ordinary school never could. As she settles in among equally odd classmates, she starts pulling on a thread connected to a long-buried family secret, one that reaches beyond the Academy's walls and into the reasons she ended up there in the first place.
Cast & crew
Antonina Litwiniak carries the film as its wide-eyed lead, opposite Tomasz Kot and Piotr Fronczewski, who bring seasoned comic and dramatic weight to the Academy's staff. Sebastian Stankiewicz, Agnieszka Grochowska, Danuta Stenka, Daniel Walasek, and Konrad Repiński round out an ensemble that leans into the story's fairy-tale logic, directed by Maciej Kawulski.
Context & significance
Kleks Academy, released in 2024 as a Bulgarian, Norwegian, and Polish co-production, draws from a beloved literary source that has been reimagined for the screen with heavy use of practical sets and fantastical production design. At 130 minutes, it aims squarely at family audiences, pairing coming-of-age themes with a boarding-school-for-the-fantastic setup that gives the visuals room to stretch. The film's world-building leans on handcrafted rooms and puzzle-box corridors rather than digital spectacle, giving the Academy a lived-in, storybook texture that suits its younger target audience.

Kleks Academy plays on K-Time with Persian dubbing and Persian subtitles, so younger viewers and their families can enjoy it entirely in Farsi.
