Together with Katarzyna Rodak, Jan wrote the screenplay for the comedy The Circle of Women, which in 2021 received a PISF development grant and a Script Wars distinction. In the same year, also in collaboration with Katarzyna Rodak, he created the script for the short film The Circle (22 min), which he directed. The rights to the film were acquired by Canal+ Polska and Ale Kino+.

The film premiered in the Polish Competition at the Krakow Film Festival in 2022. It was also screened at numerous festivals, including Młodzi i Film in Koszalin, the Polish Film Festival in Gdynia, the Film, Music and Painting Festival “Summer with the Muses”, and the Camera Action Festival.
