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. This helped organize Solidarity's underground activities for years.[2]
