High Water

High Water (Wielka Woda) stands as a landmark in international streaming, anchoring the 1997 Millennium Flood within the collective memory of a global audience. By recreating the atmospheric tension of Wrocław’s struggle against rising tides, the series moved beyond the disaster genre to explore the friction between scientific foresight and bureaucratic inertia. Its legacy is defined by an unflinching look at a nation in transition, balancing personal grief with the systemic failures of a young democracy. As a definitive portrayal of human resilience, it proved that hyper-local tragedies resonate across borders. While the waters have receded, the impact of this production remains high.
