The article is a review of Elżbieta Ostrowska’s 2024 book ReFocus: The Films of Agnieszka Holland. It highlights the pioneering nature of this English-language publication and the methodological challenges of describing the rich and diverse output of a director who has been equally successful in European arthouse cinema, Hollywood, and global streaming platforms. The book explores the multifaceted, chameleon-like nature of Holland’s authorship, paying particular attention to the context of transnational women’s cinema, Holland’s artistic biography, and her political activism.
