Summary/Abstract: The articles author tries to prove that the experience of March 1968 had a great influence on the Polish film industry. Through the examples of Marek Piwowskis “The Cruise”, Tadeusz Konwickis “How Far Away, How Near” and Andrzej Żuławskis “The Devil” the author proves that the memory of March 1968 became a part of Polish filmography very soon, in spite of the unfavorable conditions arising from the vigilance of state censorship.
