Katyn, a film that truly represents an important event, which unfortunately mostly gets lost in all the horror of the Second World War.
In the spring of 1940, the Soviets killed around 22,000 Polish prisoners of war, mainly officers, but also even generals. A terrible massacre, which has remained unpunished to this day. Since the Soviets denied this shame until 1990 and rather blamed the Germans, no one has yet been prosecuted for it.
These hypocritical propaganda tricks are very well highlighted in the film, this incredible ruthlessness of killing countless Poles first and later presenting themselves to them as a saviour.
