Man of Marble is a seminal Polish film directed by Andrzej Wajda, which explores the political and social landscape of Poland during the Stalinist era. The story follows a young filmmaker, Agnieszka, as she investigates the life of a once-celebrated bricklayer, Mateusz Birkut, whose rise and fall reflect the broader disillusionment with the Communist regime. The film is a critical examination of propaganda, idealism, and the quest for truth in a repressive society.
