Based on the events that took place in Poland in early 80s, To Kill A Priest retells the story of a Polish priest who gets mixed up with the politics, publicly speaking out against the communist regime, and gets tormented by the state security service.

It’s an interesting and valuable piece of history documented, but falls behind purely as a movie. It has everything it would need to really struck a chord in the viewer, but somehow seems to miss that something scene after scene.
