In the small town of Jarocin, the birth of a unique rock music festival provides an escape amid the social and political tensions of 1980s Poland.

A documentary film containing unique and unpublished backstage materials from the life of the legendary Kult band and Kazik Staszewski himself. A real, exciting and anticipated film about people without whom the Polish music scene could not exist. The camera accompanied the musicians during the concert tour and in everyday life, showing the phenomenon and the group and its unprecedented relationship with fans.

Two concert halls for an audience of 2,500 people, a 14-metre guitar-shaped bar, 350 artists performing at the club during the 11 months of its existence, triangular posters hanging all over the city – this is the story of one of the first independent rock clubs in free Poland which took Warsaw by storm. It became the most important place on the map of the resurgent capital in 1992 and rallied an extraordinary community of young people who loved music and fun.

A journey through three decades of Polish rock music. It begins with the famous Rolling Stones concert in Warsaw in 1967 and then goes on to show music’s significance during the wave of strikes in June 1980, which led to the birth of the Solidarity trade union.
