A documentary essay about the period during which Andrzej Wajda went from being merely an observer of history to becoming one of its protagonists. The film covers the years 1976–2000 – from Man of Marble, through Man of Iron and the birth of Solidarity, the experience of martial law and Wajda’s involvement in public life, right up to his election to the Senate and receiving an Honorary Academy Award.
