Film description

Propaganda film portraying the builders of the planned industrial city of Nowa Huta, near Cracow. The future is on its way! In the background, by contrast, lurks the past, represented by the depopulated village of Mogiła and its collapsing homesteads. But, thanks to young, smiling cadets, a steelworks is rising nearby, accompanied by a modern housing development for its workers – with electricity and a kindergarten. The builders’ work will usher in a new and better tomorrow. With commentary by Andrzej Łapicki.
