Miasto nocą

In Szczecin, police hunt for 23-year-old Justyna Przybysz, whose body, found in a river canal, has been mutilated by the removal of her right hand. As more victims turn up in similarly brutal murders, the local criminal investigation unit—and even a hired private detective—find themselves powerless to stop the killer’s escalating spree. The mounting terror and relentless violence breed conflict within the force and drive one officer to collapse.

Directed by Paweł Lewandowski, Miasto nocą leans on a strong ensemble — Marcin Laskowski, Zdzisław Dolata, Mariusz Kałamarz — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about thriller titles of 2023.
