Polish Film School
Society became more liberal (as seen, for instance, in the achievements of the Polish Film School and the creation of such controversial movies as "Ashes and Diamonds"), and a civil society started to develop, but half-hearted democratization was not enough to satisfy the Polish public. By the time of the March 1968 events, Gomułka's thaw would be long over, and increasing economic problems and popular discontent would end up removing Gomułka from power in 1970—ironically, in a situation similar to the protests that once had propelled him to power.
