  • Poland Revealed: Warsaw is an original travel documentary with the goal of presenting the capital of Poland to international audiences. It was produced by Warsaw-based Movie Mates film studio and completed in 2018 as a pilot for Poland Revealed series.
    Poland Revealed: Warsaw breaks the typical structure of a travel show. It combines insightful journalism with the genre's requirements for visual attractiveness. It is focused on the "spirit" of places, the mood of the cities encountered, their cultural life, architecture, history and cuisine. The host meets interesting people, often important public figures, who present a city, its culture and the history of its country to the host - and to the viewers.
    The show is hosted by Richard Berkeley - an Englishman currently living in Poland, a journalist, musician, lecturer and animator. He has taught at the Fryderyk Chopin University of Music and the Theatre Academy, both located in Warsaw. Currently he is the chairman of the New Chamber Orchestra Foundation. As the host of Poland Revealed he is open, direct and, most importantly, lively interested in the cities and their people.

      The Warsaw is changin so quickly that there would be a need (and good idea) to make an update video during summer'19 - with Europejski Plac, Koneser, Elektrownia Powisle, Wistula Boulevards, The View, summer cultural events, cultural nightlife in restored places.. a lot more to reveal and to compare with 2016.

      Why the interview is not being conducted with someone who is Polish? Mr. Smolarz, who was Jewish communist left Poland in 1970. Then he came back after getting money from Soros. I do not believe he reflects the history of Poland.

    I care to disagree when it is said that Warsaw is not an easy city to fall in love with. Surely, I haven't been to Wrocław or Gdańsk or any other big cities in Poland, but I have been in Warsaw and I absolutely fell in love with it. I love the mixture of its most recent history with contemporary and modern tall buildings with other sites that date way back in history. I love the night colors, the dynamic streets. Other things made me fall in love with the city: how clean the city is and how well its gardens are taken care of (on an environmental perspective, say); on a cultural and historical perspective, what fascinates me the most is the respect Warsaw pays to its heroes every year, on August 1st, that makes me want to participate in it. So… how can one not fall in love with Warsaw? :)
    With love from Portugal!

      @Fabio Thanks for saying that. I got the same reaction listening to this part... I think Warsaw makes you fall in love with it very quickly. There are many things to love here, but mainly it's about the atmosphere, paying respect and tribute to history but also opening itself to change and various ideas. It's full of novel initiatives, there's so much to do here. I'm really proud of the journey our capital has made. It's so inspiring. 💜

    how much i love Warsaw ! I was there the 1st time in 88'. What a change, hard to believe. Warsaw is with no doubt the European capital which developed the most during the last 2 decades, and the move is on, it will still last some years more. Amazing City, incredible dynamism. Every year brings new and very ambitious surprises, (this year, Elektr. Powisle, and then Bohema/Browary Warszawskie/Art Norblin, etc etc etc). For me, no doubt that in a very short future, Warsaw will become one of the most visited Capitals in Europe. City of great/tragical History, a mix of different styles of architecture, very tasty food, nice people, Warsaw has its own specificities, like no other one in Europe. Of course, some progress most still be done (less car trafic, redynamisation of squares (look the example of the next coming "5 Rogow" square), but no doubt that it will follow the right way also in these fields. Varso : VIE !!!!

      @vodkila194 5 лет назад +2

      your last comment make me think that you didn't undersand that I travelled all over the World (Africa, America, Europe) and visited many Cities ! not yet the jungle !!!Now : You're right to point out some problems that Warsaw has to face. What you say is correct. It must still progress a lot in some fields, and particularly in pollution : that is very correct. My point of view is based on its evolution during the last 2 (or 3) décades. And, from this point of view, I'm convinced that you'll hardly find other cities in Europe which had such a developement ! The pb to start the metro belongs to the past. Currently the 3rd line is on the way. Before 2012 : no bicycles in Warsaw. Now, Veturilo has a huge success. But, as I say, many progresses must still be done (too much car traffic, coal heating, what is an outdated system and creates air pollution, etc etc). In spite of all those negative points, believe me : Warsaw is just a fascinating City for many reasons (historical, mix of architecture styles which makes its specificity), evolution like no other City currently, rehabilitation of Vistula river, amazing, enhancement of real estate, etc etc). In spite of your (right) comment : be proud of your City, believe me !

    My definition of Warsaw? A unique city that keeps filling in the gaps and healing the wounds left by the WW2, a city whose citizens, while loving, curious and hospitable, might wear a slightly suspicion or distrust on their faces due to still remembering the disastrous betrayals of the not-so-distant past, a city one should visit at least once every ten years to be able to witness a transformation on a grand scale and to see its ever-changing skyline. It's where the past is being taken care of and restored, and the future being looked forward to. It's truly exciting to be able to live here! It's incomparable! If you do come - let me know. I'll be happy to show you around :)

      Thank you for your comment. Phrase "destruction by the Nazis" emphasize political responsibility, Warsaw was to be destroyed by Hitler's direct order. In fact on the German side there was significant number of other nationalities assembled on the territory of USSR however they were obviously subject to the control of the German war machine. Norman Davies's Rising '44 is a must-read study of Warsaw's hecatomb for anyone interested in WW2 history.

      Hey Maciej. I made a distinction of who destroyed Warsaw between the group of political individuals and a country. It was the Nazi Germany responsible for this and not the Nazis. To a foreign person not familiar with WWII, Nazis could be understood as Poles. Kind like today we have political groups within the European Union that have alliances across the national; borders with their representatives in Brussels.
      Furthermore, we do not say that Irak or Afghanistan were the Republican wars or that the Republicans came or occupied or destroyed Baghdad. We call them American wars and it was the Americans that did them not the Republicans. The republicans were in charge had the majority but just as in the Nazi Germany there were other parties that also at least partially supported this.

      Od trzydziestu lat wciąż się rozwija i jakos sie nie zmęczyło. Podobny rozkwit Waszawa przezywała w 14 w., potem w drugiej połowie 16 w. i na poczatku 17 w., w 18 w. (to był rozwój na miare dzisiejszych czasów) , w latach 1816-1914 (faktycznie była najładnejszym i najbardziej rozwinietym miastem Imperium Rosyjskiego, nawet jesli Rosjanie ja przesladowali i specjalnymi dekretami zabronili jej po Powstaniu Styczniowym rozrastać się wszerz). Potem nastapił wręcz niebywały rozkwit - w latach 1918-1939. Do tego trzeba doliczyć odtworzenie Starówki i wielu innych ulic w latach 1949-1954 oraz świetna architekture modernistyczną z lat 1956-1970. Chyba tylko wojny i napasci z zewnątrz sa w stanie Warszawie przeszkodzić.

    Excellent documentary but I need notice one thing. Except Wilanow Palace, you completely forgot visit (or mention about) "Miasteczko Wilanow" in Wilanow area. It is a perfect example, how Warsaw is rapidly expanding. Of course, I do not have on my mind any skyscrapers in this area but a brand new flats. It started over 17 years ago and currently there is plenty of new buildings (should be around 20-30 thousends flats), shops and offices. Construction works are still in progres. From time to time a new buildings are poping up. In The Miasteczko Wilanow also has been built a new temple, which is The Temple of Divine Providence (Świątynia Opatrzności Bożej).
    I know one thing, in ten years time Warsaw will look different.

      pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Konstantin_Cio%C5%82kowski
      Early life
      Tsiolkovsky was born in Izhevskoye (now in Spassky District, Ryazan Oblast), in the Russian Empire, to a middle-class family. His father, Makary Edward Erazm Ciołkowski was a Polish forester of Roman Catholic faith who emigrated to Russia;[5] his Russian Orthodox mother was of mixed Volga Tatar and Russian origin.[6][7] His father was successively a forester, teacher, and minor government official. At the age of 10, Konstantin caught scarlet fever and became hard of hearing. When he was 13, his mother died.[8] He was not admitted to elementary schools because of his hearing problem, so he was self-taught.[8] As a reclusive home-schooled child, he passed much of his time by reading books and became interested in mathematics and physics. As a teenager, he began to contemplate the possibility of space travel.[1]
      Konstantin Eduardowicz Ciołkowski (Konstanty Ciołkowski, ros. Константин Эдуардович Циолковский; ur. 17 września 1857 w Iżewskoje, blisko miejscowości Spassk-Riazanskij w obwodzie riazańskim, zm. 19 września 1935 w Kałudze) - rosyjski uczony polskiego pochodzenia, jeden z pionierów kosmonautyki, twórca modelu teorii ruchu i budowy rakiety kosmicznej, przedstawiciel naukowego nurtu kosmizmu rosyjskiego[1][2]
      Życiorys
      Był synem polskiego urzędnika[3] Edwarda Ciołkowskiego wywodzącego się ze szlacheckiej rodziny herbu Jastrzębiec i wykształconej Rosjanki tatarskiego pochodzenia - Marii Jumaszewej. Z zawodu był nauczycielem matematyki i fizyki. Sam wspominał, że złączył w sobie krew rosyjską, polską, tatarską i jeszcze, zdaje się, ukraińską[3].
      Циолковский, Константин Эдуардович
      Константи́н Эдуа́рдович Циолко́вский (5 [17] сентября 1857, Ижевское, Рязанская губерния - 19 сентября 1935, Калуга) - русский и советский учёный-автодидакт, разрабатывавший теоретические вопросы космонавтики, и мыслитель эзотерической ориентации, занимавшийся философскими проблемами освоения космоса[1].
      Происходил из шляхетского рода герба Ястржембец. Почти полностью оглохнув в детстве в результате скарлатины, Циолковский не получил систематического образования (проучился четыре года в Вятской гимназии и три года занимался самообразованием). В 1879 году сдал экзамен на звание народного учителя и до 1921 года преподавал математику и физику в училищах Боровска и Калуги, параллельно пытаясь заинтересовать научное сообщество своими проектами аэропланов и цельнометаллического дирижабля, а впоследств
