Description: With hangover Tonia wakes up in prison, with no understanding how she got there. Police officer begins to question her about the crime, about which she knows nothing.

Review: This film, in view of the dramatic part, was to some extent overestimated. However, time and place of shooting played an even greater role. Surprisingly well that such counter-revolutionary film was shot and, yes, even secretly distributed in 1982. After Poland although not officially part of the USSR, but the communist nation certainly was.

The plot involves chamber narrative, but the richness of events leads to the presence of a few scenes in a completely open space. Polish People’s Republic, 1952, to all appearances, Warsaw. The wild blonde canary Toniyu arrested on suspicion of spying for the capitalist empire of evil. Taken into custody rather unique way, before that badly watered and amusement in other ways in the appropriate place. And waking up, in terrible conditions crowded female unit, among rodents and waste heroine different methods are forced to sign all sorts of recognition containing fantastic statement. Especially interesting was the approach with the production of the murder, more executions, where stool prisoner as if shot in the heart, behind closed doors, and the same, pointing the muzzle, threatened interrogated. On this side of the screen is immediately noticeable that the blood smeared on the head, and of course on the course written off as clumsy error, and then suddenly it turns out that the truth is quite deliberately live actor to actor. Incidentally, it is curious that really cruel, according to the wafting cries, had tried to men from the neighboring block. Toniyu kicked once, and once pulled by the hair and repeatedly exhausting watering with a hose, and without, but for a long time, but in most cases subjected to quite quiet conversation in a simple scoop office. Permanent loss of consciousness the main character here can be attributed to a weak mind. It is quite curious decision could be periodic vision, but there are sharp and they are somehow not counting the previous blackout, are inseparable from the reality, and look in the end as a kind of sur. That singer strangling guards dressed and immediately gets to his apartment, the bad cop suddenly evaporated, and after a while is one that is kinder. By the way, additional pressure is that in addition to the only matron, the rest of the staff, including inspect and washing, is represented by men. Processing technique itself repeatedly played out in American movies: a “good cop, bad cop.”

Because the defendant repeatedly transferred from cell to cell, we are introduced to various inhabitants Nevesely institution. Not that the characters are really open, but the palette and types of views is reflected in all its glory. Among others in the prison are still even ardent communists. To heighten the interest of one day having called a Nazi ideological, but also favorable investigator, Tonya discovers that he had been in front of the Second World War in Auschwitz. In this connection it has spread offense he suddenly imbued with sympathy for the “Conclusion D”, simultaneously giving up on the idea of ​​communism.

Definitely strength tapes are typical makeup and systematic transformation of the nature of the situation and windy frisky artist in even-aged melancholy maiden. Here then begin to empathize before rather unpleasant drunken smokers. True, all this, hair and skin inmates did not differ in their brilliance and gloss of Hollywood stars. And despite the fact that some of the girls are sitting there the first year, and the other at all tillers from birth. Closer to the end crumpled about two years of his release. Here and does not understand the seriousness of the situation resentful husband and lesbian line, and betrayal, and even suicidal. The only way to salvation is an unexpected pregnancy. However, soon after the death of Stalin in “53em thaw begins and it would let go, and so, though later. Yes, it is striking that the state may be up to a blameless citizens, but neither mentioned Aushterlitsa levels or the Gulag, we will not see here. Unbroken A perturbed victim like herself hints stories about the war in interrogations, and that too is not seen. In general, then, hardly a modern Eastern European anything here can hit. Featured post-war horrors were already well known at a time when “Interrogation” just came out. But the generation of the 60th still was not enough for that not warped, but rather hardened and subsequently lifted up as the last great builders of a better future. Additional fly in the ointment I note that, while watching how the characters change and interesting, but by the middle it becomes clear that everything, except the unexpected lover investigators – definitely two-faced sadists and brutes past. Actually, the recurring theme is that everyone is willing to meanness, if cornered. On the other hand, truly dedicated to the author of the popular movement, it seems, on the contrary support.

Obviously, the prisoner is innocent, as actually and other politically persecuted, but in the conclusion of the heroine have no choice but to pretend as if nothing has happened. The Company continues to blindly and boldly go to a brighter future, and nobody else’s business to “several” supposedly random ruined lives. They are the necessary foundation for the next generation and the victim. No wonder, innocent babies, for which everything was built, forcibly torn from their children and placed in numerous shelters hastily furnished.

From my point of view, with the makings of sharp social picture, which dates at times perhaps even alive, but still not completely implemented. It is unclear how Bugajski gave a lift back in the 1982nd, but little-known director so involved in the subject of oppression under socialism, which continues to take similar movies to this day. The major problem particularly loud “interrogation” seems obviously forced speed up the second part, where instead of the actual and consistent narrative in the course are more assumptions, and in the spirit of the game through the eyes of another martyr, “Jeanne d’Arc” Dreyer.
