Lech Janerka

Berlin, 1990. At the invitation of his actor friends, who have already lived abroad for many years, Max, a Polish theater director, comes to Berlin. They begin to work together. They try to realize their dream: to stage a play, the staging of which was prevented by the imposition of martial law ten years earlier. The way they raise funds (selling pieces of the "historic" wall) and struggle against the heartless machinery of bureaucracy forms the axis of the film. In their efforts, the four protagonists are assisted by Regina, a translator familiar with local customs and practices. The film deals with the problems of artists in the new, commercializing reality.

Polish film directed by Jacek Skalski. A young student, expelled from university for taking part in strikes, and a middle-aged married woman, whose husband is abroad, fall madly in love during the tumultuous times of 1980s martial law.

A journey between reality and a dream, the film takes us through the life of a legendary Polish musician.

A potrait of Budyń – an extraordinary, talented artist and stage personality, known for exceptional, poetic lyrics and passion for music.
