1972

 

DOCUMENTARY

Filmed after the strikes of December I970 and the downfall of Gomulka, the film 'was intended to portray the workers' state of mind in I97I· We tried to draw a broad picture showing that the class which, theoretically at least, was said to be the ruling class, had somewhat different views from those which were printed on the front page of the Trybuna Ludu.' (Krzysztof Kieslowski)
The film was later re-edited by Polish Television and shown, without credits, as Masters (Gospodarze).
