Sinopsis
A journalist from Warsaw travels to Silesia and manages to find a tenement house full of exceptional inhabitants.
Piotr Tymochowicz, media advisor to some of Poland's top politicians, claims that anybody can be molded into a charismatic leader. To prove it he's looking for a greenhorn that can be turned into a candidate. A call is put out for would-be participants, and hundreds apply. A small group is selected and under go training. Polish master Marcel Lozinksi followed Tymochowicz and this project for three years, and this beautifully shot and edited work paints a compelling portrait of cynical (and quite familiar) demagogy and populism in action.

Las mujeres critican a los hombres por ser insensibles y no escuchar, por no ser afectuosos ni considerados, por no comunicarse, por no expresarles todo el amor que ellas necesitan, porque nunca encuentran nada en la nevera, por no comprometerse en las relaciones, por preferir el sexo a hacer el amor y por dejar la tapa del inodoro levantada. Los hombres citican a las mujeres por su forma de conducir, por mirar los mapas al reves, por su falta de sentido de la orientacion, por utilizar los lavabos como salas de reuniones, por hablar demasiado sin ir al grano, por no tomar la iniciativa en el sexo mas a menudo, y por dejar bajada la tapa del inodoro. ¿Por que?: Porque los hombres y las mujeres son diferentes. Ni mejores ni peores, simplemente diferentes.
