Dziewczyna z plakatu

In May 1949, in Wilanów, they ordered her to get on a tractor – it was American, because we didn't have our own at the time. She started driving, got distracted, and crashed into a wall. This event was later depicted in the TV series Dom. The difference was that in the film, it was Ewa – Joanna Pacuła – sitting on the seat. In reality, the photos were taken of Magdalena Figur, and she was the heroic tractor driver from the poster, although at the time she did not know that this machine would become the most important thing in her life. She had been interested in motor vehicles since childhood, always watching her father's hands when he was doing something. In February 1949, she eagerly took advantage of the opportunity to complete a course for tractor drivers.
