The course of events
refers to the Polish history at the turn of 1970s and 1980s.
Maciek Tomczyk, a blue collar in Gdansk Shipyards, is an
active member of a Strike Committee. Winkiel, a Polish Radio
reporter, receives instructions to write a report that would
discredit Tomczyk. The events which the reporter is learning
about through Winkiel and is witnessing give him awareness
that the strikers and not the communistic authorities are
those who are right.
