The Morality of Mrs. Dulska (Polish: Moralność pani Dulskiej) is a 1930 Polish film, directed by Bolesław Newolin based on the play by Gabriela Zapolska under the same title. It was the first Polish sound film.[1] The dialogues were recorded on vinyl records that were lost, so the film is currently silent.[2]

Plot

[edit]

The action of the film takes place in Warsaw (not in Lviv like in the original play) at the beginning of the 20th century. The Dulski family welcomes a new servant - Hanka. The girl falls in love with their son Zbyszek. The young people have an affair which results in an illegitimate child. Zbyszek wants to marry the girl but meets the resistance of his parents.
