Children of Solidarnosc
Rafael Lewandowski
Poland ï 006 ï 74 mins
In 1980, workers from
a Gdansk shipyard began a strike against the totalitarian Polish
regime. A group of intellectuals joined this first wave, and
the Solidarity movement was born. People began to fight for
the chance for their children to grow up in a free country with
better living conditions and a better future. 25 years later,
this generation of children has grown up. Young people born
in the same year as the movement that changed the history of
their country give their opinions on the struggle and the ideals
of their parents. Combining material from the period with present-day
reflections on it, Children of Solidarnosc explores the ideals
the Solidarity movement set for itself and whether these ideals
have been fulfilled.
