"Zapora" - a documentary on one of the most invincible commanders of the Polish independence underground, a “Silent Unseen” - Major Hieronim Dekutowski

The film is a record of the memories of his subordinates, colleagues, friends and family members. From their stories emerges a picture of a man demanding and stubborn, yet sensitive and longing for a normal life. The stories told by Dekutowski’s former soldiers are illustrated with photographs, documents and animations of the unit’s actions. The communists made sure that his name slided into oblivion. He returned as a hero.
