A perfect life destroyed by one letter. The past always finds its echo.
It seems that nothing can ruin Henryk’s (Wieńczysław Gliński) happy life. He’s a respected lawyer with a loving son and wife. One day, he receives a letter from the prosecutor’s office. He’s accused of collaborating with the Gestapo. It’s an echo of his past under occupation.
Acting
Gliński's face as his world crumbles — no histrionics, just hollow.
Direction
Różewicz frames domestic spaces as interrogation rooms.
