What happens
Legion ulicy (The Street Legion) is a Polish black-and-white drama film from 1932 directed by Aleksander Ford, based on a screenplay by Maksymilian Emmer and Andrzej Wolica. The production depicts the story of a teenage boy named Józek. The boy takes a job as a newsboy to help his mother, who has been injured in an accident. Unlike most Polish productions of the time, which rejected realism and everyday life, Aleksander Ford tackled a theme close to life and Polish reality. The subject matter and innovative filmmaking methods brought Legion ulicy positive reviews from critics and enthusiastic reception from the audience. Copies of the film were lost during World War II.
