Through the fate of the main character, Józek Garstka, the Polish village was depicted during the Nazi occupation and at the beginning of the communist regime (1940–1945 and 1956) in a way that differed from the previously binding narrative. Trying to survive the difficult times, people lost in the new reality often behave in a way that is far removed from the propaganda stereotypes cultivated in earlier Polish cinematography about war heroism, sacrifice and sacrifice.

The authors of the series tried to show, in particular, the weekday of the Nazi occupation in Poland. Conspiracy, military actions and shootings were programmatically relegated to the background. In return, "Polish Roads" provided a cross-section through all the then social strata. They told about people often surprised by history who gradually learn the sinister logic of Nazi terror.
