Want to see some great movies try NetFlix and a series called Decalogue. It is a Polish TV program - 10 one hour shows on the Ten Commandments. Subtittles Yes - but they are powerful one hour stories on the morals of this time. The series came out in 1988 and watching the way people lived in Poland will also be a great lesson to kids on why the Soviets and Communists are gone. There is no preaching in this, but it will cause you to think about - have no Gods or Thou Shalt Not ___. The small pictures of 1988 Poland show how much the church was part of their questions about their society.

Thanks for the tip- I'm a great admirer of the Polish people. Those who lived under the boot of Communism are usually the greatest advocates for freedom.
