Sinekatalog’s take
Wojciech Has's elegant drama follows an actress who, during the Nazi occupation, hid a man and then sacrificed her life for him. Barbara Krafftówna is superb in a delicate, melancholic and visually graceful study of devotion.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
