Ashes and Diamonds

Andrzej Wajda Poland, 1958

On the last day of World War II in a small town somewhere in Poland, Polish exiles of war and the occupying Soviet forces confront the beginning of a new day and a new Poland. In this incendiary environment we find Home Army soldier Maciek Chelmicki, who has been ordered to assassinate an incoming commissar. But a mistake stalls his progress and leads him to Krystyna, a beautiful barmaid who gives him a glimpse of what his life could be. Gorgeously photographed and brilliantly performed, _Ashes and Diamonds_ masterfully interweaves the fate of a nation with that of one man, resulting in one of the most important Polish films of all time.
