Synopsis

The 70s. A Security Service Major wishes to "buy" gullible priest Zieja and turn him into an agent who will discredit the opposition. The priest's interrogations become a natural pretext for a journey through the history of Poland in the twentieth century: from the Bolshevik war of 1920, through World War II, up to modern times.

Critics' reviews

"A cat-and-mouse police grilling is blunted by explosive flashbacks (...) The strongest scenes follow from the duel of wits (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
