Narrator: John Dildine.Cast: Ruth Maleczech, Mark Margolis, John Perkins, William Raymond, David Warrilow.Summary: A woman filmmaker, steeped in the documentary tradition of the Left, sets out to show the road to salvation through the "miracle" of the Polish Solidarity movement. Denied visas to shoot in Poland, she constructs a film in New York over the barest bones of documentary footage and creates her personal definition of the Polish struggle. The result: a deft dismemberment of the myth of "documentary truth."
