| Trivia | The film made during the "Carnival of 'Solidarity'" in 1981, completed in early 1982, after the proclamation of the Marshal Law in Poland. Due to its controversial anti-communist themes, was banned by the Polish government (then under the communist rule) for nearly eight years, until it was finally released in December 1989, after the disintegration of the Soviet Bloc.
