Patryk Vega’s The Plagues Of Breslau is a highly enjoyable and bloody gruesome crime thriller that is held together by some very strong acting, particularly from former soap-opera queen Małgorzata Kożuchowska, and some smashing set-pieces.
‘The Plagues of Breslau (Polish: Plagi Breslau) is a 2018 Polish crime thriller directed by Patryk Vega. It premiered on 24 November 2018. The title corresponds to the former name of Wrocław, which from 1741 until 1945 was “Breslau”. The film and plot were loosely based on a series of crime novels by Marek Krajewski, who often incorporates Breslau’s pre-war crime scene into his works.’
