Script chatty. Soapy and soap suds. Actors too kempt and well washed, even in rough scenes. Actors’ body language and posture too correct and formal through dark scenes. Photo and lighting too symmetrical and too well-lit for current mood. Some chiaroscuro and tenebristic tones will support some scenes. Actors, except lead and that grey haired woman seem to miss danger in the story. Since when are Americans in intel work look so sentimental? Good story but poor direction.

Good artful production with good actors, good cinematography and complex narrative and atmosphere. High praises to Polish film production.
