PRL DE LUXE

REPRESENTED BY KFF

 

Crazy Mike from Krakow specializes in organizing guided tours that are anything but typical. He drives the tourists to Nowa Huta in a dilapidated Vee Dub and allows the relics of the past- the “Stylowa” restaurant, the former site of the Lenin monument, the giant steelworks, a typical worker’s flat- to unfold their charms. During the sightseeing, he talks about the joys of life in the People’s Republic of Poland and the absurdities of real socialism. Will the memory of the trip stay with the tourists a little longer? The film has been shot as part of the First Documentary project.
