		The unrepeatable nature of the director's films and their great success at the world market could be a final satisfaction of our all complexes: the "lack of appreciation", absence in the world, neglect by festival juries etc. Hopefully that completed creativity may become a challenge to the present, creative ambitions.

		This film presenting the fall of Gierek's era and the birth of the Independent Workers Union "Solidarity" was made by the artist using both the "strategy of the psychotherapeutist" and that of the "clairvoyant," since he questioned the indissoluble nature of the social agreement signed by the government with workers.
