ComingSoon is debuting an exclusive trailer for the upcoming U.S. premiere of Viaplay’s award-winning Polish historical action movie, Scarborn (Kos). The Quentin Tarantino-esque film will finally start streaming in the U.S. on Thursday, April 30, exclusively on Viaplay.
“Spring of 1794, Poland is in turmoil. Kos returns to Poland and plans to start an uprising against the Russians by mobilizing the Polish nobility and peasants. He is accompanied by his faithful friend and former slave, Domingo. Kościuszko is followed by a ruthless Russian captain, Dunin, who wants to capture the general at any cost before he triggers a national rebellion. Meanwhile, a young peasant, Ignac, a noble bastard, dreams of receiving his coat of arms and property from his illegitimate parent, Duchnowski, who includes him in his will just before his death. When his father dies, the boy has to flee from his half-brother Stanisław, who wants to prevent the execution of his father’s will. Ignac steals the will and has just two days to appear in court to prove his title of nobility,” reads the official synopsis.
“In his escape, Ignac meets Domingo. A strong bond of understanding forms between the men, even though they do not speak each other’s languages. They end up at the manor house of the Colonel’s Wife, where Kościuszko hides while waiting for negotiations with the magnates. Kos is distrustful of Ignac and keeps him under arrest. Still, at the decisive moment, the fate of the uprising will lie in the hands of the inconspicuous noble bastard. When the moment of trial arrives, Ignac will have to choose whether to follow his dream of nobility or join Kos and fight for the highest stakes with him.”
