The film is being released in Polish cinemas for the first time since its 2001 premiere. Who is Donnie Darko? At school, he's a teenage outsider. At home, he's a boy struggling with mental health issues. In his dreams, he's a chosen one visited by a large, dark rabbit named Frank. Frank claims the world will end soon. And when his dreams begin to intrude on reality, Donnie is faced with larger-than-life questions: about time, fate, and the very nature of the world itself. "Donnie Darko" is like a plunge down a rabbit hole. It's a cinematic puzzle that encompasses time travel, a Lynchian look at American suburbia, high school drama, a parody of coaching, physics, philosophy, the social unrest of the turn of the millennium, and "Alice in Wonderland." It's a mystery as enigma as its director, Richard Kelly, who, after his brilliant debut, made two more equally strange films—and then fell silent. It was also a breakthrough role for Jake Gyllenhaal, who was 20 at the time of filming, who, as Donnie Darko, first demonstrated his talent for creating ambiguous, complex characters.
