Road to freedom is the story of a young man from Poland who, at the age of 10, by listening to a clandestine radio broadcast of the inauguration of President John Kennedy in 1961, discovered the meaning of freedom. He decided then, that one day, he would escape from the Communist world to the free world. It took him 14 years of struggling and preparation before the final execution of his plan.
