RED CAPTAIN / ČERVENÝ KAPITÁN
     

Director:

Michal Kollár

     

Producer:

Michal Kollár (Sokol Kollar, SK / Fog‘n’Desire Films, CZ)

     
Year 1992. Homicide detective, 32- year-old Richard Krauz, is desperate to distunguish himself from the police of previous regime. During grounds keeping at an old cemetery a corpse with a nail driven through its skull was disinterred. The body belongs to a church clerk. Detectives soon reveal he was tortured and murdered by former Secret Police (ŠTB), the executioner being The Red Captain, a notoriously brutal "expert on final interrogations". Far from solving the case, Krauz finds himself mixed up in something that involves not only the highest levels of the former ŠTB but also the Catholic Church.
Based on the novel by the Slovak best-selling author Dominik Dán.
