Very powerful movie

The film is based on the real life of Polish writer Alexander Wat and his wife Ola. When Germans and Soviets occupied Poland in 1939 many Jews fled to the Soviet occupation zone. Over there they were forced to accept Soviet citizenship. Those who refused were arrested and sent to the Eastern parts of the USSR.

During the war, they lived in subhuman conditions. Many didn't survive, and many were just shot by the Soviet secret service.

The movie depicts the life of Ola Wat and her little son Andrzej in Kazakhstan. The script is based on Ola's memoir which describes the terrible suffering of Poles in Russian exile.

Once again the Polish cinematography produced a brilliant movie that is worth watching.
