A 60 year old man is murdered in a small village in Mazury. Six villagers are involved in the crime. The victim turns out to be a repeat offender who had terrorised the inhabitants of the area for many years. The men had no prior record and argue that they acted in self-defense. Yet they are accused of premeditated murder and are caught up in the ruthless mecanisms of the police investigation and trial. The village people and families of the accused come together to demand their acquittal. Inspired by a true story that happened a few years ago. (CinEast)

I have become used to Polish films being good. Lincz caught my attention already at first glance. But I never suspected I would be so shocked. The film tells a true story that happened in one Polish village. It portrays how the democratic system that everyone has fought for here has its flaws, and one cannot do anything against them in some cases. After all, the Middle Ages had some good points, what can I say.

The Poles are somewhere else. It's a pity that Czechs can't do more than comedies or fairy tales (let's see what happens with the upcoming Jan Žižka, which seems solid so far). The Poles, serve up a steamy drama-thriller told in flashback about an old man who terrorizes his family and has to pay cruelly for it. There are scenes of prison, courtrooms and a bit of physical violence, so there's something for almost everyone. The short 85 minute running time is also a plus, so you are almost left breathless. A decent piece of work. 75%

It seems a bit one-sided, but that is not a bad thing in this case. It is not primarily a thorough psychological probe of those involved in one human tragedy, but rather an uncompromising mirror held up to the spirit and word of the law, as well as to "higher principles", to the bureaucratic machine, or to a simple eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth... A film in the best Kieślowski tradition.
