Popielec

    Synopsis

    Through the fate of the main character, Józek Garstka, the Polish village was depicted during the Nazi occupation and at the beginning of the communist regime (1940–1945 and 1956) in a way that differed from the previously binding narrative. Trying to survive the difficult times, people lost in the new reality often behave in a way that is far removed from the propaganda stereotypes cultivated in earlier Polish cinematography about war heroism, sacrifice and sacrifice. In fact, it is a generational saga of the Polish countryside, referring to the TV series Chłopi by J. Rybkowski, but taking place in a particularly difficult period of the 20th century.
