A Year in the Life of a Country (Rok z życia kraju)

A found footage film full of absurdity and crackerjack, frisky energy about a breakthrough moment in Polish and world history. In 1981 the country is on the verge of an unraveling revolution, with communist authorities willing to do whatever it takes to suppress it. On December 13, Martial Law is imposed and the next day tanks take to the streets. Soldiers control the cities, enforce a curfew, and the army pacifies the striking workers. State-controlled journalists try to discredit the opposition led by Lech Wałęsa, and Solidarity members are imprisoned. Propaganda is in full swing. Shall Poland cry over its fate or laugh about the farcical theater in which it is the main protagonist?
