Nominated for "Best Foreign Language Film" at the 1976 Academy Awards®.
Andrzej Wajda’s interpretation of a classic 19th century epic depicts the sweeping change in values ushered in by the industrial revolution. Three friends hope to build a factory but their plans are quickly jeopardized by local politics and one of the partner’s dangerous love affair. Critically acclaimed for its masterful direction and fine acting, this ever-current film has a strong statement to make about modern times, the balance of greed, entrepreneurship and individualism versus the collective.
