The Promised Land (Ziemia Obiecana) by Andrzej Wajda is an epic 1975 film portraying a Charles Dickens like atmosphere in Lodz, Poland, around the late 1890s, covering up the Industrial Revolution, inhuman factory conditions, ruthless capitalists, unprincipled, unethical, exploitative, deceitful, immoral & dehumanized characters, greed, treachery, extra-marital affairs, Poles-Germans-Jews nexus, tussle between the workers and the factory owners, et al.
Overall it gives a good demonstration of a Marxist view of Society
