About the series
What it’s about
In 1976 rural Poland, a bus hits and kills three young people on Christmas Eve. The official verdict is an accident, and witnesses stay silent. A grieving mother and a young investigator refuse to accept that conclusion and begin their own inquiry.
What hooks you
Directed by Jan Holoubek and Maciej Kowalewski, the series stars Tomasz Schuchardt as prosecutor Kiełczkowski and Adam Woronowicz as Władysław Kaleta. It is based on a novel, and the cast includes Jędrzej Hycnar as investigator Henryk Maczek and Justyna Wasilewska as Irena Karaś.
Who it’s for
It is a good pick for those who appreciate slow-burning detective stories with a strong sense of place and period, and for viewers drawn to crime narratives that question official accounts.
