"STRIKE" - 2006 - Poland/Germany - Volker Schlondorff
A hard hitting drama based on historical events from the biography of Anna Walentynowicz, the free trade activist who mobilized a million Poles for Solidarity and helped to hasten the fall of Communism. An illiterate single mother, Agnieszka Kowalska is a Socialist "heroine of labor" for working long hours as a shipyard welder... until a tragic industrial disaster changes everything. Risking her job, her life, and the love of her son to defy the bureaucracy, Agnieszka inspires the largest labor strike in world history... becoming a national hero in the process.
