Plot

'Prophet' by Michal Kondrat tells the story of Cardinal Wyszynski, the Primate of Poland, who, after three years of internment at the hands of the communist authorities, returns to lead the Church in Poland.

The film offers an intimate view of Primate Wyszynski, played by Slawomir Grzymkowski, a spiritual leader and visionary who negotiates with the communist authorities for more rights for the Church and the oppressed nation, unleashing a hidden war for freedom religion and human dignity. He reveals his determination in confronting the communists and discovering Karol Wojtyla (Andrzej Niemyt), whom he recommends as an auxiliary bishop. The dialogues are based on stenographic records of conversations with figures such as Gomulka (Adam Ferency) and Cyrankiewicz (Marcin Tronski). The government attempts to destroy the Primate and the Church, deploying operation 'Prorok', but his unwavering faith and defense of freedom and human dignity mark the prelude to the fall of communism.

Michal Kondrat leads an outstanding team that includes Mateusz Pastewka on cinematography, Katarzyna Bogucka, Joanna Dudek-Lawecka and Karolina Slyk on the script, Pawel Witecki on editing, Bartosz Chajdecki on music, and Mariusz Bielecki and Bartosz Putkiewicz on sound. The production is in the hands of Joanna Strzelecka and Daniel Wielgórski, with Marek Trojak, Michal Kondrat and Anna Kondrat. Funded by the Polish Film Institute, Polish Television S.A., the Center for Audiovisual Technologies, the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage, the Polish National Foundation and the St. Maximilian Kolbe Film Foundation.
