People were shown in various activities with the different types of costume. Crafts were demonstrated by the men and women, showing how tradition has kept men and women working by hand on some of the necessities of life—clothing, shoes, and woodworking. "The men as well as the women have their individual dances, also the different group dances were displayed. A good film for the classroom. Perhaps the class would want to see this one several times."

"Traditional methods of farming are briefly seen, and then some views of the Car- pathians. In AVarsaw a wide range of archi- tectural styles is shown, from the Jewish quarter to the palaces of nobles and some of the modern buildings. . . Shows [only] three parts of Poland—Gdynia, Warsaw and the Carpathians—and therefore could not be used to give an impression of Poland as a whole. The building of the harbour at Gdynia is well shown." British film inst. "Here at last is a social studies picture of the people of a country, and not a mere travelog. It is the best picture on Poland which has been released recently. . . The film contains maps, and an excellent commentary giving the historical background necessary for an understanding of the present crisis. The photography is good, and the editing very careful." E.S.
