Warsaw, Poland at the end of the 1970's. The workers' revolt, violently repressed by the authorities mobilises a group of individuals who create KOR, or Workers' Defence Committee.
Heir to the communist regime opposition movement since the end of the second world war and supported by figures rising up against social injustices since the 1920's, KOR is comprised of committed people, with simple yet efficient methods, unusual ethics, the will to shatter the state information monopoly and to establish an independent workers' organisation.

Last, but not least, school is a place of dialogue and attention. It can also be a place to defend girls against familial violence.
