- Synopsis:
Following his renowned War Trilogy, Andrzej Wajda made this provocative film from a script co-written by Jerzy Skolimowski (Deep End). A commentary on the lives of young people who grew up in the new, post-war communist Poland, Wajda chronicles a bohemian milieu of motor-scooters, love, sex and jazz with great vitality and humour. The rebellion the film depicts is social and moral, not political - and the film angered both Communist and Church authorities by showing its young characters' explicit rejection of any ideological affinity. With an outstanding cast headed by Tadeusz tomnicki and including Polish superstar Zbigniew Cybulski, this is a key film in its director's oeuvre - and one that has substantially grown in stature over time. - Actors:
