80 Million (Polish: 80 milionów) is a 2011 Polish drama film directed by Waldemar Krzystek.[2] The film was selected as the Polish entry for the Best Foreign Language Oscar at the 85th Academy Awards, but it did not make the final shortlist.[3] It is about Polish activists who withdrew 80 million zlotys from Solidarity's accounts hours before the accounts were blocked by martial law in Poland in December 1981.
