Trwoga 1993

Directed by Andrzej Titkow

Collective heroes of the film: men, women from across the eastern border. Belarusians, Russians. In Poland they found a chance for a better existence. Many have education, often higher education, but they work on construction sites. Ten hours a day at a time. They are treated as second- or third-class people. They are required to do more than Polish workers, and paid much less. They accept this. They have no choice.
