The Palme d’Or-winning follow-up to <i>Man of Marble</i> sees Winkel, a Communist-friendly radio journalist, charged with finding compromising information about a Solidarity opposition leader. But in witnessing protesting workers’ fight against political propaganda and commitment to overturn a repressive regime, Winkel questions his own beliefs. Directly addressing the contemporary political situation as Poland entered the 1980s, <i>Man of Iron</i> combines fact and fiction to stunning effect, resulting in one of Wajda’s most profound artistic achievements.DramaPT2H27M12A2026-03-08
