MAN ON THE TRACKS was one of the first films of the so-called Polish Film School and as such influenced the whole generation of young directors who participated in the movement.
The film tells the story, mostly in flashback, of a railway worker who is fired from his job for alleged sabotage of the Socialist methods of work.
