A drama following the tragic story of a man who had served 18 years in prison before he was found not guilty in 2018. Tomasz Komenda was 23 years old when his life was brutally interrupted. He was arrested overnight, thrown into prison and charged with murder. Further reports confirmed his involvement in the crime and all evidence was against him. For nearly two decades of imprisonment he was beaten, threatened, humiliated and left alone. Finally, after 18 years of imprisonment, prosecutors and a policeman appeared on his way, who decided to discover the truth behind the mysterious case of the detainee.
The screening will be introduced by Dr Malgorzata Bugaj, Teaching Fellow in Film and Media at the University of Edinburgh's Centre for Open Learning.
