CreativeChaos To Adapt Polish Activist Klementyna Suchanow’s Book

Social change doc maker CreativeChaos has acquired rights to activist and author Klementyna Suchanow‘s non-fiction book This is War: Women, Fundamentalists and the New Middle Ages.

New York-based CreativeChaos will look to turn Suchanow’s story into a four-part doc series. Suchanow will executive produce alongside the production company’s co-founders Tom Donahue and Ilan Arboleda, and project co-creator Jan Swietlik. Suchanow will write the script.

The untitled project will follow Suchanow’s transformation from author to activist on trial for actions against Poland’s ultra-conservative government. She and two other Polish women were arrested for allegedly organizing protests against new anti-abortion laws during the Covid-19 crisis.
