The Reconciliation (2017)
The beginning of 1945, Poland. In a newly liberated country, the Communist Security Service is annihilating its enemies under the guise of punishing "national traitors."

Franek, who is in love with the Polish prisoner Anna, goes to work as a warder in the camp to save her.
