Andrzej Wajda’s first TV Theatre production is an adaptation of Kazimierz Brandys’s book of the same title. An American journalist interviews released SS General Wolfgang Joachim Ballmeyer about the massacre on Barnum Island, where locals were manipulated through religious conflicts into aiding their own annihilation. Unexpected justice finally catches up with the criminal.
