Film Gietrzwałd 1877. Unknown contexts geopolitical will tell about extraordinary events that took place in the summer of 1877 in the Warmian village of Gietrzwałd (then under the Prussian rule of Dietrichswalde). This is the only revelation of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Poland, whose authenticity has been canonically confirmed (by the decree of Bishop Drzazga from 1977). However, neither the message itself (transmitted in Polish!), Nor the scale of events (nearly half a million pilgrims, then 5% of the nation!), Or consequences that are difficult to overestimate (not only spiritual, religious or sociological, but also political, military, nay, almost geostrategic!) - this does not take up an adequate place in the Poles' awareness. And what to say about the place due Despite the pas*age of 141 years, the situation does not change in one thing: the academic world (scientific literature) notices Gietrzwałd at most on the margins, as an element of religious folklore, and the Catholic world (confessional, religious literature) largely ignores important contexts of the epoch - therefore, the historical significance of Gietrzwało is widely ignored. Our venture will be successful, if perhaps in a modest way, it will contribute to the change of this state of affairs to its film measure. The aim of the film is on the one hand a reliable reminder of the docu*ented facts that make up the events that took place in Gietrzwałd between June 27 and September 16, 1877 (160 visions!), And on the other - a scratch of a broad background on which the de*pest meaning, urgency and timeliness of the message from Gietrzwałd. The closest context is, of course, Bismarck's Kulturkampf - the war with the Church, whose special, separate battlefield is Saint Warmia, which for centuries has been continued with Catholicism and Polishness. The wider context is the next phase of the so-called The great game in June) introduces the entire European continent to an inclined plane - in the near future there is a globalization of conflict.
