Ryszard Siwiec set himself on fire during the large harvest festival at the Warsaw stadium in 1968.

He did it to protest against the military invasion in Czechoslovakia.

Although his act was captured by a motion picture camera, Polish press omitted any mention of the incident, which was successfully suppressed by the authorities. Siwiec prepared his plan alone, and few people realized what he tried to achieve with his sacrifice. His story remained mostly forgotten until the fall of communism, when it was first recounted in a documentary film Uslyszcie mรณj krzyk
