About the film

1977. An eighty-year-old father Zieja, the co-founder of the Workers’ Defence Committee, is interrogated by Grosicki, a Security Service officer. Grosicki wants to talk him into collaboration. The interrogations set the memories from Zieja’s life into motion. Full of dramatic events related to the twentieth-century history of Poland, they become a backdrop against which the priest’s uncompromising moral stance is shown.
