Tomasz Wolski's film creatively reimagines the brutal December 1970 protests in Poland, utilizing stop-motion puppets and archive footage to explore the disconnect between authority and dissent.
The film's satirical portrayal of party apparatchiks highlights their detachment from the harsh realities on the streets, emphasizing the contrast between their complacency and the people's suffering.
While focusing on the violent suppression of protests by Polish authorities, the film serves as a reminder of the beginnings of the Solidarity movement led by figures like Lech Walesa.
Although the film employs a dark humor through its animation and sound effects, it powerfully depicts the tragic reality of the protests and their impact on history.
