Synopsis

Set in Poland in 1982 during the politically tense period of communist martial law, the film follows two coal miner brothers who respond to the repressive regime in contrasting ways. Tadek opts for a stance of neutrality, while Janek becomes involved in the democratic underground movement. Janek's request for Tadek to hide anti-government leaflets on the second anniversary of the 1980 Solidarity strikes sets off a chain of events that puts the brothers' loyalties and personal convictions to the test.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 17

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
