The Stars Must Burn
1954, Polish. Directed by Witold Lesiewicz & Andrzej Munk.
The year 1953 ends. Mines that failed to fulfil the plan are not allowed to light their star. Socialist realism treated seriously – with the memory of the mining tradition, with respect for the work of the old, with hope for the young.
