The Promised Land - Andrzej Wajda (Poland, 1975, 2h 59m)

Included by Martin Scorsese in his retrospective on the Masterpieces of Polish Cinema. Set in the booming industrial city of Łódź at the end of the 19th century, three ambitious friends from different backgrounds unite to build a textile factory. Their pursuit of wealth and success exposes the ruthless realities of capitalism, ambition, and social inequality. -- *Write-up by the Austin Film Society* Film Trailer Tickets can be bought online at this link.
