Zmowa (2022)

Zmowa (2022) poster

The film tells the story of a disturbing conspiracy of silence that has gripped the community. People are afraid to express their opinions, aware that the police are involved in the events. The main subject of the documentary is the brutal murder of 17-year-old Iwona Cygan. The filmmakers try to unravel the mystery of who was responsible for harboring the perpetrators and why this happened for years. However, while watching the film, it is worth bearing in mind that the theories and actions of investigators and the actions of the judiciary are clearly subordinated to the political goals of the Law and Justice party government. To achieve media success, coercion was used to obtain confessions and reliance was placed on anecdotal evidence, as documented by reporter Matthew Baczynski. As a result, the suspects became media convicts and their lives turned into a nightmare.
