안제이 바이다 감독의 약속의 땅은 특정 시대, 특정 장소의 폴란드에 대한 다층적인 탐구를 담은 찰스 디킨스풍의 묘사가 두드러진 영화다. 19세기 말 우츠 시는 유럽 섬유 산업의 중심지로, 전세계에서 가장 큰 유대인 집단이 장악하고 있었다. 이곳은 수천 명에 달하는 실업가들의 탐욕을 채워줄 무한한 기회가 제공되는 초기 자본주의자들의 땅이다. 안제이 바이다 감독은 의욕에 찬 세 명의 친구들에 초점을 맞춰 이야기를 전개하지만 동시에 수많은 인물들에 대한 세밀한 관찰도 놓치지 않는다. 사회 내부에서의 계급 갈등, 인간의 어두운 면, 자본주의 체제의 본질 등에 대한 완벽한 묘사가 눈에 띄는 작품이다.
