Adventure on Marienstadt (93')

A band from Złocien is coming to Warsaw for a trip. Soloist Hanka Ručajówna sets off alone to visit the rebuilding capital. In the evening in Mariensztat he meets Janek. Love at first sight is born between them, which the girl cannot forget after returning to her native village. In the spring, he arrives in the capital, learns the masonry trade and tries to find a boyfriend. He finally sees it on the poster. Despite the difficulties posed by the master Ciepielewski, who did not recognize a woman with a trowel, thanks to the help of a found beloved, she was employed in his brigade, later - in a team of bricklayers working on the reconstruction of the palace into a bricklayer's house. Poorly connected water causes flooding in the renovated building, and this is a few hours before its grand opening. However, everything ends well. Hanka and Janek can enjoy their love and youth.

Direction — Nowa Huta! (12')

Andrzej Munk's first film, made in 1951, accurately documents the gradual progress in the construction of a new city - a combined plant, the Nowa Huta near Kraków. Such rapid progress is, of course, possible mainly thanks to the great help of Soviet friends.
