This film is a "Free City" ("Wolne Miasto"). Directed by Stanislaw Rozewicz.

[@johnfalstaff2270]

Marcin, tez tak myslalem ale fim "Wolne Miasto" powstal w 1958 roku a nie 1956. Nie chce mi sie wierzyc ze realizacja tego filmu zaczela sie ponad dwa lata wczesniej. Gdyby tak to moglo by i tak byc, ale chyba nie.

[@doktorpapago4305]

@@johnfalstaff2270 To absolutnie normalne. Realizacja pełnego filmu kinowego w tamtych czasach trwała przynajmniej dwa lata, sam montaż był długotrwały. A pamiętaj też, że uroczysta premiera filmu odbyła się 1 września 1958 roku, więc mógł przeleżeć na tę okazję nawet kilka miesięcy po ukończeniu.

[@alh6255]

It is 1956, you can see postwar ruins (after the 2WW), and some houses restored already, cars produced by Poland since 1954 (Warszawa - the brand) and in the end you can see movie equipment and people making "Wolne miasto" ("Free city") - film about Gdańsk in 1939, directed by Stanisław Różewicz, produced in 1956. By the way: in 1936 you couldn't see any nazi flags or symbols in Gdansk - it was Free City under Polish and German control, with independent government and Hitler influence was not as strong at that time.

[@grzegorzp.5734]

@@alh6255 You are wrong.. before 2WW Free City of Gdansk was ruled by local Germans - NSDAP nazis. Hitler even became a honorable citizen of Free City of Gdansk.

[@alh6255]

@@grzegorzp.5734 Learn history (of the all 20 years of interwar period) and read something about the structure of the ruling of the Free City. Gdańsk was ruled by an independent government with Polish representatives of local Poles, and with the official representation of the Polish state (keeping an eye on the law adherence), with Polish post office, policemen and military unit. The same was on the German side. Coexistence of Polish indigenous population and of Germans (multiple descendants of Germans who flowed there in 19th century) was difficult. Of course, since 1933 nazi influence was stronger and stronger, with a lot of cases of breaking international law by Germans in 1938 and 1939,.

Film bardzo ładny. Nie rozumiem tylko sensu końcówki filmu z czasów Hitlera. Jeżeli miał to być kontrast, pięknego Gdańska z Gdańskiem 11 lat po wojnie, odbudowywanym po wojnie, której nie my chcieliśmy, to i tak słabo wyglądają flagi hitlerowskie z mogiłami ludzi po obydwu stronach tej bezsensownej wojny.

Jak można takie kłamstwo ludziom wciskać? Gdańsk ze swastykami w tle nie jest z 1956 roku! Gdańsk po 2 wojnie światowej był zniszczony.

[@robertwisser5825]

One of my grandparents had a Polish last name (he appeared to be ethnically and genetically Polish) but he had German citizenship and was married to a German woman who lived in Gdansk (Danzig). He lived there with his two German speaking children up until over 90% of the city was destroyed and all of the remaining original inhabitants were either killed or expelled by the Communists in March 1945. The 1929 census that was published in "Ergebnisse der Volks- und Berufszählung vom 1. November 1923 in der Freien Stadt Danzig" shows that there were 328,025 Germans living there and 7,896 Kashubian, Polish and Masurian people living there, whereas the 1948 census shows the population as being 99% ethnic Polish (many of these new Polish arrivals were victims of the U.S.S.R. who were forcefully expelled from their homes in what is now the country of Belarus, and Belarus used to be called "Poland" before the USSR invaded and took it over in 1939). So if this video is in fact Gdansk, in Communist Poland, in 1956, as it purports to be, then why is there a little blonde smiling German kid wearing Bavarian Lederhosen pants at the right side of the screen 3 minutes and 6 seconds in to the video standing next to an old chimney sweep who has a Hitler / Chaplin type moustache? A second German boy (also wearing Bavarian Lederhosen pants) shows up at 3:11 and then 3 minutes and 14 seconds in you see a woman who is dressed the way German women would dress in the early 1940's. And all of the SS runes and swastika flags that we see 3 minutes and 25 seconds of the way in to the video, well, that is kind of unusual for 1950's Communist Poland, but maybe the Dalai Lama and some Tibetan Buddhist monks were visiting and they plastered Hindu / Buddhist religious markings all over the town to make it more festive. These Buddhist monks must have also had some kind of Germanophilic inclinations as they put up a sign 3 minutes and 38 seconds in that says "Danzig, bleibt Deutsch", which roughly translates as "Danzig, is still German." All and all this is actually not all that unusual for video that was filmed in Communist Poland in 1956 because Oceania is not, and has never been, at war with Eurasia. Oceania is, and always has been, at war with Eastasia. The people out in the streets then become embarrassed about carrying the anti-Eurasia signs and blame Emmanuel Goldstein’s agents for sabotaging them. Nevertheless, they exhibit full-fledged hatred for Eastasia.

[@dmitriturenkov2394]

+Anon Ymous Thanks, I am interested. Every time I try to look into pre-war ethnic census in Danzig, I invariably bump into "over 90 percent German". This is the first time I have seen a reference to a credible source. Trying to google it. I suspect the book might be available in Pomeranian digital library, am I right ?

perfect comment

[@zepter00]

Before making stupid comments you should read this first.. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Gdańsk all of you...also person with black cat as avatar. Krauts shouldnt start war and kill dozens of milions people in Europe and shouldnt burn down half of the Europe. Only in Poland They kolęd 6.120.000 people and destroyed, robbed property worth almost 900 bilions of dollars.

cassubia you can write in Wikipedia only if you have source and will show it.. source must be respected by all scientists, historians etc.. if you don’t have anything inteligent to say better shut up. Your nazi sentiments have nothing to do with historical truth.

Nazi flags in 1956???

[@DavBlc7]

You'll note that there is three lightening and some cameras, might be the making of a war film. They were in fact Poles dressed in German uniform, etc while some people were extras. The Nazi flags were put by the movie company to make it set before or during the war.

[@darekomernik119]

In 1956, a film about the defense of the Polish post was filmed in Gdańsk, hence the flags

Zepter00 is right, it is after all historically a Polish city founded by a Polish leader and occupied by polish people before the Prussians took it and annexed it. Poles were expelled and then come back after world war I. The Nazis expelled the Poles again and Hitler declared the city truly German. After the war, the surviving poles returned and the Allied leaders including Stalin declaring it a Polish city at Potsdam conference. Germans were either fled or expelling from the city to Germany. Very few Germans remains in the city to this day.
