overview
What is A Generation about?
Stach is a wayward teen living in squalor on the outskirts of Nazi-occupied Warsaw. Guided by an avuncular Communist organizer, he is introduced to the underground resistance—and to the beautiful Dorota. Soon he is engaged in dangerous efforts to fight oppression and indignity, maturing as he assumes responsibility for others’ lives. It blends war, drama elements. The film reflects a distinct Poland style and perspective. The story is brought to life by director Andrzej Wajda. With a runtime of 1h 27m, it offers a concise viewing experience.
