Film done on request of party after Wajda turned to politician.
13 September 2016
Warning: Spoilers
Film is supposed to show Walesa as a polish hero. When watching dokumentaries it's clear that he was a selfish egocentric hard to communicate man within "Solidarnosc" union. Film is a pure fantasy. Today's documents say that he might have collaborate with polish KGB. Instead jumping through the fence (he cannot specify where exactly) he was delivered by KGB officers from the watersite. The fact that today no one is left by his site from old Solidarity people, except of those, who made big fortunes tells also a lot. After he called in 2012 to beat "Solidarity" protesting on Warsaw streets, he doesn't deserve any movie at all. It turned out that Falacci was right. Besides Wajda calling to domestic war because his opponents can win tells for itself. Friend made a film about friend spending public founds granted by friends.
