The film, based on a German play, looks at the links between the Vatican, the Nazi regime and the extermination of Jews. 

The film is partly historical and partly fictional, and it created great controversy on its release. 

REVIEWS

"This is not the place to debate the Vatican's role, but Costa-Gavras offers a most persuasive study of its shortcomings." - BBC

"The film persuasively shows the Vatican to be coldly arrogant and haughtily implacable, set on a course of pure pusillanimity. Costa-Gavras brings to his movie seriousness and high-mindedness, and elicits performances of intelligence and distinction from his cast." - THE GUARDIAN 

+ INTRODUCTION

The film will be introduced by Dr Daniel Laqua, lecturer in History at Northumbria University.
