Movie Haiku: | Winner of 9 "Lions" (& nominated for 2 more), this intense drama was the candidate from the Czech Republic for Best Foreign Language Film Oscar in 2013. Immaculate Cold War era "police procedural" is set in Prague in 1953, when Soviet-inspired anti-Semitic show trials were used to distract people from the crippling consequences of imminent monetary devaluation. |
