Tributes - Retrospectives - Cinema on cinema
POLAND | 179 minutes | 1975

A masterpiece of baroque realism, the film paints a world where the greed of some trumps the fundamental rights of others.Presented by the FONDATION LILIANA KOMOROWSKA POUR LES ARTS and the EMBASSY OF THE REPUBLIC OF POLAND IN OTTAWA
