What happens

Katyń (Polish pronunciation: [ˈkatɨɲ]) is a 2007 Polish historical drama film about the 1940 Katyn massacre, directed by Academy Honorary Award winner Andrzej Wajda. It is based on the book Post Mortem: The Story of Katyn by Andrzej Mularczyk. It was nominated for Best Foreign Language Film for the 80th Academy Awards. Wajda’s Katyń is the first screen portrayal of the long-suppressed and “highly controversial historical event.” (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
