About This Item
N.p.: N.p., 1982. Original Treatment script for an unproduced film. With 17 pages of information about Polish screenwriter Witold Orzechowski laid in, including a background on his film career on the other side of the Iron Curtain and about his affiliation with the Solidarity political party.
