ABOUT THE FILM: In Polish with English subtitles. “It all started with an anecdote in a newspaper: a bricklayer came to the employment office but was turned away because Nowa Huta only needed workers for the steel foundry. One of the clerks, however, recognized the man’s face – a well-known bricklayer leader, the star of the last political season. That wasn’t much to go on, but our artistic director knew who could turn it into a script. Ścibor – Rylski had written The Ashes- but I didn’t know he had also written portraits of bricklayers for the so-called ‘Library of Work Leaders,” recalled Andrzej Wajda, describing the beginnings of MAN OF MARBLE in the early 1960s. Searching for a subject for a contemporary film, Wajda and the screenwriter, inspired by Agnieszka Osiecka (then a student at the Łódź Film School), decided that a young female director working on her graduation film would be the narrative link to the actual story of the bricklayer leader.
