Bolesław Woźniak

Nikodem Dyzma immigrates from the eastern part of Poland to the capital in the hope for possibilities to make a living. He is in need, very poor and forced to look for basic food and shelter. Yet, on a day when an unexpected invitation appears, his life changes dramatically.

Set in the beginning of World War II, when the Polish cavalry still fought with lances against German troops, the movie is about a white thoroughbred horse that passed through various hands in a military outfit.
