In Darkness was recently nominated for Best Foreign Film at the Oscars this past weekend for Best Foreign Language Film which is testament to it’s awesomeness!  The movie stars Robert Wieckiewicz, Benno Fürmann, Agnieszka Grochowska, Maria Schrader, Herbert Knaup, Marcin Bosak and is directed by Agnieszka Holland.

Have a watch of the clip embedded below. It shows the lengths in which the characters go to to stay alive. I’ve also placed the trailer below.

In Darkness is released in UK cinemas 16th March.

One day Leopold encounters a group of Jews trying to escape the liquidation of the ghetto and agrees to hide them for money in the labyrinth of the town’s sewers. But what starts out as a straightforward and cynical business arrangement soon turns into something very unexpected, as the unlikely alliance between Leopold and the Jews seeps deeper into his conscience and they form an incredibly close bond. An extraordinary story of survival and the inherent capacity for love held deep within the human soul, In Darkness is an emotional tour de force that will stay with audiences for years to come. The UK premiere of IN DARKNESS will take place at the I0th KINOTEKA Polish Film Festival.
