directed by Henryk Kluba (Słońce wschodzi raz na dzień, Poland 1967–72, 90 min. – original version with Italian subtitles)

The inhabitants of a mountain village, led by their chief Haratyk, build a sawmill entirely under their own steam and manage to boost output to the levels demanded by the planned economy. But when they are ordered to give up what they have achieved to the anonymous "state", they refuse and take up arms. Adopting a symbolic stylisation echoing the popular dance genre, Kluba, with this film, "was the first (...) to point up the inconsistency between the notion that all means of production belong to the workers and the de facto ownership exercised by the bureaucratic state" (Mira and Antonin J. Liehm).
