- This is not her first film, as she appeared years ago in the production of “Carolcia”. However, the movie was not released. It was supposed to be a musical production with ballroom dancing scenes, and it was to be distributed overseas. Why there was no premiere, you have to ask the director and producer, who may have misinvested the money intended to finish the film – you tell us

Pyotr Barzez: How did Majka Jeżowska play in the movie “Generation Ikea”?
Majka Jeżowska: Last year I performed at the Rampa Theater with Michał Walczak, creator of the famous “Fire in the Brothel”. In the play “Grand Musical Hotel” I was a Warsaw mermaid, I had a very active part. I received a lot of compliments and compliments on social media. He wrote that I was an undiscovered acting talent and the Netflix producers should line me up. “I am waiting for offers,” I replied, and so Monica Raj, production manager of “Pokolenie Ikea,” spoke to me. And since I love new challenges, working with young people and broadening horizons, I accepted the offer with great joy.
Did you read the script before or did you just go with the flow?
I knew the book “Generation Ikea”, on the basis of which the film was made. Director David Grall assured me that it was a “small but important role” (laughs). For the viewer, it may be interesting to see on the screen a person who has been associated with singing children’s songs so far. The film is mainly about human loneliness in the age of dating apps, about the ease of quick hook-ups, the so-called “scoring” and the difficulties of finding true love. This is a topic that affects all of us, regardless of age. I think loneliness is a problem nowadays. A lonely person can be anyone from twenty to sixty, someone who is completely lost, who has a hard time connecting with people. Viewers who go to see this movie may be pleasantly surprised.

You can read online that “Majka Jeżowska played in an erotic movie”. What are you saying?
I also want to reassure the parents of all children who attend kindergarten. Majka Jeżowska, because I heard they were worried about my role: I’m not crazy! On the other hand, I don’t want to be a slave to people’s ideas of me, nor do I want to hear that something is wrong or not allowed. And if I can realize myself as an actress, why not? I recommend going to the cinema to see the movie “Generation Ikea” and see it for yourself.
In the movie trailer, we can see part of one of the scenes in which you say to your son, “Today I will not have sex.” Some people were very indignant at these words and called you “scandalous”.
The confusion around me always results from the staircase I find myself on. Not as an adult has the right to do different things, but this “Majka Jeżowska”. Hence these articles. Even when I play in a movie and say a line from the script, I’m not an actress to them, I’m still a “majka”. They try to discredit me by citing lines from movies and claiming that they are not appropriate for “Majka Jeżowska”. Funny how words can be taken out of context like this.
Someone you don’t like in your hometown?
Not everyone should like me, but writing shit about me and preaching hate has its consequences. I am not visiting my hometown now, because I am not welcome there. in revenge [za słowa, że “Nowy Sącz to zagłębie kościelno-zaściankowe” — przyp. red.] My performance was canceled two days ahead of schedule, and I even received threats of physical violence. I hope one day the climate will change and I will be able to return home to my family in peace.
Bartosz Gellner and Majka Jilovska on the set of “Generation Ikea”
Let’s go back to the movie. The role of the mother in “Generation Ikea” is not Majka Jeżowska’s first appearance. Twenty years ago she played in the production of “Carolasia”, which, however, never saw the light of day. Why?
She played the main role of Aunt Agata there, along with Faye Dunaway herself, a Hollywood legend. She also co-wrote the music for the film. It was to be a musical production with singing-dance scenes, and it was to be distributed abroad. Why the premiere did not take place, you have to ask the director and producer, who may have misinvested the money intended to finish the film. It’s a shame because it could have been a really nice family movie.
“Generation Ikea” is a movie that is not only about dating, but also about friendship between males and females. Do you think it is possible in real life?
From my own experience I can say yes. And I’m talking about straight men, because it’s long been known that women’s best friends represent the LBGT community. I have been friends with Piotr Gąsowski for many years, with whom I can talk for many hours, discussing all the most intimate aspects of life – and without any sexual overtones. We never really flirted with each other, we are the same in many ways, we feel the same way, we go on vacation with friends, we support each other, we miss each other, we laugh at the same jokes. We have survived various struggles. This is my constant value in life. Of course, I don’t know what would happen if we were left alone on a deserted island (laughs).
Bartosz Gellner and Majka Jilovska on the set of “Generation Ikea”
Did you feel chemistry with Bartosz Gellner on set?
I was so happy that he was playing my son. We hadn’t known each other before, but I was intrigued by his “un-Polish” way of being and playing. I love these unusual and unconventional people. We suffer in the end.
Did anything on the set surprise you, did you experience any “acting difficulties”?
If we do something that is not in our field, there is always stage fright. Fortunately, I didn’t have to pretend to be a sincere and warm person, because that’s who I am. I have a good memory and I am not mistaken in learned matters. Here I had to build a relationship with my cinematic son. The point was for the viewer to believe that I am and have always been a good mother to him. This “Ikea generation” of thirty and forty years old today, brought up on the songs of Majka Jilovska, sees me a bit as a “second mother”. At the first meeting with the director, I saw that he was delighted that I would be in his film. I get the impression that in the “Ikea generation” I was not only an actress, but also a symbol of a cold and warm mother with whom you can talk about everything, including sex. Maybe that’s why you were invented for this role?
