Wesele
1973 · 1 hr 42 mins
Set at the turn of the century, the story concerns a Polish poet living in Cracow who has decided to marry a peasant girl. The wedding is attended by a heterogenous group of people from all strata of Polish society, who dance, get drunk and lament Poland's 100-year-long division under Russia, Prussia, and Austria. The bridegroom, a painter friend, and a journalist each in turn is confronted with spectres of Polish past. In the end a call to arms is called but turns out to be a hoax.
Director: Andrzej Wajda
Cast: Marek Walczewski, Izabela Olszewska, Ewa Ziętek, Daniel Olbrychski, Emilia Krakowska
