About this Show
Silent Night
Inspired by a true story, Silent Night (Wśród Nocnej Ciszy) is an impactful, visually rich drama series exploring of one of the most brutal crimes in modern Polish history. On Christmas Eve 1976, amid snow, silence, darkness, three young people – a pregnant woman, her husband, and her younger brother – are killed by a bus while returning from Midnight Mass. No one saw anything...or perhaps no one wants to talk. Instead of answers, there is a wall of silence and the incident is officially ruled an accident. But, the victims’ mother Zdzisława Kaleta and young investigator Henryk Maczek refuse to believe the official story. Desperate to uncover the truth, Maczek risks his career, while Kaleta, unable to come to terms with her loss, will not rest until she finds answers. The deeper they dig, the more shocking the revelations become… and the truth might prove to be worse than the lies.
