Centre for the Study of Modern Conflict presents: Andrzej Wajda, a retrospective - Man of Marble

The film chronicles the fall from grace of a fictional heroic Polish bricklayer, Mateusz Birkut, who became the Stakhanovite symbol of an over-achieving worker, in Nowa Huta, a new (real-life) socialist city near Krakow. The film will be introduced by Dr Tim Buchen, History, Classics and Archaeology.

This event is free and open to the public. No tickets required.
