A documentary about the economic changes which happened in Poland after 1989, and about Leszek Balcerowicz – the man and the leader. The film explores the braveness of decision making and assuming responsibility for the fate of society in a situation of extreme uncertainty, limited information and international turmoil – all during the biggest political shake-up in modern Polish history. The film shows the price that leaders have to pay for taking responsibility – both politically and personally. The film features Professor Leszek Balcerowicz, Ewa Balcerowicz, Professor Zbigniew Brzeziński, Daniel Fried, Robert Zoellick and international commentators.
