What's left behind the scenes
- The film is based on Jerzy Andrzejewski's novel 'Ashes and Diamonds' (Popiół i diament, 1948).
- Zbigniew Cybulski played in his everyday clothes and dark sunglasses, which did not match the historical realities of 1945.
- The film was shot in Trzebnica and Wrocław.
- “Ashes and Diamonds” faced serious censorship difficulties. Those responsible for ideology were disturbed by the fact that the anti-communist, played by Cybulski, did not lose his romantic aura even after killing a party official. The film made it to the Venice Film Festival on the initiative of a minor official, against the decision of the party leadership. Although the film was shown out of competition, it was noticed and received worldwide recognition. It was only allowed to be shown in the USSR in 1965.
- This is the final film in Andrzej Wajda’s war trilogy about World War II, which also includes “Generation” and “Kanał”.
