The ‘1920 Battle of Warsaw’ is the only battle fought by the Poles themselves (unassisted by others) since the seventeenth century,  with a winning result.

This battle maintained the newly regained Poland’s independence for 19 years and halted the Red Army march on Europe, forcing Lenin and Trotsky to resign from lighting the “flame of world revolution”.

However, it is not the historical figures, except Pilsudski, that will play a decisive role in this film.

The entire burden of action and the involvement of the audience’s emotions falls on the shoulders of two literary characters: Ola a revue theatre actress and her recently married husband Jan, a communism-supporting idealist. The fighting lines will be shown by Jan’s fate. Ola will be a participant in and be a witness of the emotions experienced by the residents of Warsaw.
