Released in 2016, Zaćma is a drama film directed by Ryszard Bugajski, running about 110 minutes.

What it’s about. A little known episode from the life of Stalinist security police office Julia Brystiger. Her nickname Bloody Luna was a reference to her incredibly brutal methods of interrogation. In the early 1960s, she appears in a centre for the blind on the outskirts of Warsaw, a place often visited by Cardinal Wyszyński, whose imprisonment in 1953-1956 Brystiger supervised personally. During a difficult and heated discussion with the cardinal, Brystiger denounces the communist ideology and begs for forgiveness for her crimes and for guidance in her search for God.

Who’s in it. Zaćma stars Maria Mamona as Julia Brystygierowa, Malgorzata Zajaczkowska as siostra Benedykta, Janusz Gajos as ksiądz Cieciorka and Marek Kalita as prymas Stefan Wyszyński, among others.
