Wojciech Jerzy Has (1 April 1925, Kraków; 3 October 2000, Łódź, Poland) was a Polish film director, screenwriter and film producer.
Born in Kraków, with Jewish origin on his father's side, - Has is the Hollandic, Yiddish and Germanised Jewish surname Haas (האָז), hare in English- and Roman Catholic on his mother's; however Wojciech Jerzy Has was agnostic. (Cf. Moldes, Diego, El manuscrito encontrado en Zaragoza. La novela de Jan Potocki adaptada al Cine por Wojciech Jerzy Has, Ediciones Calamar, Madrid, 2009. ISBN 84-96235-32-7.)
During the wartime German occupation of Poland, Has studied at the Kraków Business and Commerce College and later clandestine underground classes at the Kraków Academy of Fine Arts - until it was disbanded in 1943. When the war ended, he went on to study at the reconstituted Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. In 1946, Has completed a one-year course in film and began producing educational and documentary films at the Warsaw Documentary Film Studio, and in the 1950s moved on to work at Poland's premier filmmaking academy, the National Film Studio, in Łódź.
