In 1997, she made her film debut when she directed the documentary The Girls From Szymanów for which she received a prize at the Polish Festival of Documentary and Short Films. Her 1998 film, Franciscan Spontan, dealt with religious themes and the music for the film was written by Michał Lorenc.

In 2004, she made her feature film debut when she directed Pręgi ("Welts") tackling the issue of domestic violence and based on the prose of Nike Award-winning author Wojciech Kuczok. The film was critically acclaimed and won the Golden Lions Award at the 29th Gdynia Film Festival.[3] It was also selected as the Polish entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 77th Academy Awards.[4]
